Disgraced former US cyclist Lance Armstrong has claimed that he would never cheat at golf because the sport has a code of honour which they never had in cycling.

Armstrong no longer races competitively and due to the same he plays a lot of golf.

Armstrong, whose net worth was 125 million dollars in 2012 and now he plays for an amount labelled as 'enough that it hurts', said that one might consider him to be the last guy to have anything to say about cheating, but claimed that golf is different, News.com.au reported.

He said that he loves adhering to a code of honor that they in cycling didn't have, and added that if he moved his ball in the rough and got caught, he wouldn't just regret it, he would be heartbroken forever.

Armstrong claims that when he thinks about reform in cycling, he thinks about golf.

Armstrong was stripped of his seven Tour de France titles for testing positive for doping, the report added.
