Interestingly, Diksha was a last-minute entry at Tokyo 2020 after South African golfer Paula Reto withdrew. At the Tokyo Olympics, Diksha finished T-50 and is focused on doing well in Paris.
“In Tokyo, I was happy just participating. It was a great experience, learning and motivation for me. For Paris, I am more committed and focused on performing well rather than just participating,” said Diksha.
She is currently placed 37th in the Olympic Golf Rankings (OGR) and is well-placed to obtain a quota for the Paris 2024 Olympics with the top 60 making the cut. Aditi Ashok is the best-placed Indian women’s golfer in the OGR at 25th.
