The PGA Tour confirmed on Wednesday that none of his wagers involved events in which he was playing.
The 55-year-old, whose best PGA Tour Champions finish this year was runner-up in the Senior British Open, can return on 22 February 2027.
Gogel called the situation an honest mistake.
“In 2024 and 2025, I unknowingly violated the PGA Tour policy by placing small, recreational wagers on golf,” Gogel said in a statement provided by the tour.
“I want to be clear that these wagers were not placed on regular PGA Tour events, PGA Tour Champions events or any tournament in which I participated.”
The tour did not disclose details of his violation, though his statement would indicate the wagers involved major championships.
Gogel, who grew up in Kansas, was best known on the PGA Tour for shooting 40 on the back nine in 2000 when Tiger Woods overcame a seven-shot deficit in the final seven holes at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am for his sixth straight victory.
Gogel atoned for that two years later by winning at Pebble Beach, his lone PGA Tour title.
He worked briefly for Golf Channel and CBS, returning to competition when he turned 50 and became eligible for the PGA Tour Champions.
