Scottish golfer Elliot Saltman has been banned for three months by the European Tour for marking his ball incorrectly during an event last year.
A statement released by the tour Wednesday said Saltman "committed a serious breach" of regulations and was immediately suspended from all European Tour and Challenge Tour-sanctioned tournaments.
