Noisy Golf when steering?

The car turned left and made a noise like the exhaust had fallen off but it hadn't. Can not see anything unusual underneath. It sounded like it came from the back of the car on the passenger side. Any idea what it could be?

The exhaust striking the rear suspension because one of the straps broke.
