Women’s Indian Open Golf: In-form Tamburlini The One To Beat This Year
Only one among the dozen has bagged more than one title – Chiara Tamburlini of Switzerland - and she could do it once again this week at the US$ 400,000 Ladies European Tour event. The goal for Tamburlini is a fourth title in 2024 and to seal the LET Order of Merit come Sunday. At 69th position, she is the highest world-ranked player in the elite field that also features 27 Indians, including five amateurs.
Meanwhile, the entire Indian contingent, barring Diksha Dagar is knocking on the doors of a maiden LET win. A win would put them in a club that only has Aditi Ashok (5 LET wins) and Diksha Dagar (2 wins) as its members. Incidentally, Aditi remained the only Indian winner at this premier women’s golf tournament, when she grabbed the title back in 2016.
