Who says you have to fly to the VOR? Once you have the airport in sight, comply with whatever procedures are listed for that airport ;)

If you're on a VFR flightplan, there's no law that says you HAVE to fly over the VOR. Once you have the airport in sight, do you really need to fly over the VOR?

I guess you could pass the VOR, and than cross mid-field and enter the pattern for Runway 9...

The VOR is there to help you navigate to the airport. It's not a mandatory waypoint ;)
