(Reuters) - Dutch golfer Joost Luiten said on Tuesday he won a court case that will get him into the Paris Olympics after the Netherlands Olympic Committee and Netherlands Sports Federation (NOCNSF) opted not to send him despite being eligible.
Luiten, who did not say where the court case took place, had qualified for Paris but his national committee decided not to enter him into the golf competition, believing his world ranking, which was 147th at the time, was too low to give him a realistic chance in a 60-player field.
