Golfers Aditi Ashok: India's Aditi Ashok and Diksha Dagar got off to a solid start in the women’s individual stroke play golf at the Paris Olympics as Aditi finished tied for 13th spot while Diksha was tied seventh. Both have all to play for in the next three rounds.

Aditi made a considerable name for herself at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics when she finished fourth in the competition just missing out on a spot on the podium. The 26-year-old is participating in what is her third appearance at the Games and finished with a par score of 72 on the day.

Aditi started strongly and hit a birdie in the third hole. She went on to hit a bogey in the 8th hole but made up for it in the very next with another birdie. A 13th-hole birdie further propelled her chance of finishing in the top 10 on the day but a double bogey in the final hole of the day saw her finish at the par score.
