Shaun Norris penalized two shots for rules violation in Scotland

Shaun Norris faced a two-shot penalty during the final round of the 2026 Nexo Championship at Trump International Golf Links in Scotland. While preparing his approach shot on the fifth hole, Norris kicked a divot, violating Rule 8.1, which prevents players from improving conditions affecting their stroke. Initially the 54-hole leader, Norris dropped from a score of 9 under to 7 under after being informed of the penalty at the turn, trailing leader Scott Jamieson by four shots. With a few holes left, Norris shifted from a competitive position into a challenging chase.
