NORTH BERWICK, Scotland – It took an emergency court ruling to allow Justin Harding to play this week’s Genesis Scottish Open, but despite the obvious distractions, the South African made the most of the opportunity.
Harding is one of four players who were granted last minute stays that allowed them to play the event after initially being barred by the DP World Tour because of their participation in the first LIV Golf event.
Controversy aside, on the course he carded a bogey-free 65 for a spot inside the top 5.
“I’ve tried my best at keeping it all to one side,” Harding said Thursday.
