    Just Google search learninghowtogolf.com.

    It's there in the results, but showing the hacked version.

    It hasn't been banned, but will probably need some recovery time to start getting traffic again.

    Good luck

    It still shows up in the Google search I perfromed;

    site:learninghowtogolf.com - Google Search

    Not sure if it's been banned though?! Judging by the content Google shows your homepage to have it is a possibility.

    Sorry to hear you were hacked. Hope you get it all sorted out!

    Probably Yes, it's been hacked but not banned by Google.I did a search on your site.

    But do you still have access to your web host panel or cpanel? check if you can still log into Cpanel. I hope your login details haven't been compromised.

    Always watch your investments.

    This is the result of the search:

    learninghowtogolf - Google Search

    Log in your Cpanel and change your password and log in details. Let Cpanel create a pasword for you which is very strong/. Then check your contact info, your email and change it too.

    Just check your related logins too.

    It can probably be fixed. One of my competitive sites was hacked and they made the sitemap to block the index page.

    I had to wait for the next caching till it came back.
