Thorbjorn Olesen arrives at Isleworth crown court in September 2019 to face charges of sexual assault. LONDON: Ryder Cup winner Thorbjorn Olesen was cleared on Thursday to return to playing on the European Tour after his trial on charges including sexual assault was delayed until the end of next year.

The 30-year-old pleaded not guilty to all three charges in December and was due to return to court for his trial starting May 11. "While my team and I initially agreed that I would not participate in Tour events while the legal proceedings were outstanding, I am naturally grateful to the European Tour for allowing me to continue my career following the lengthy adjournment of my trial," said Olesen."Obviously, the case itself is still ongoing so I will continue to make no comment about it."
