Diksha Battles Back To Stay In Contention At Scottish Open
Ladies European Tour: India's Diksha Dagar produced one of the grittiest rounds of the opening day at the Scottish Open, overcoming a disastrous start with a superb back-nine recovery to card a 2-over 74 and finish tied for 33rd after the first round.
On a windy day at Dundonald Links, where scoring proved difficult, Diksha looked set for a disappointing opening round before producing a remarkable turnaround. Six-over through 10 holes, she played her final eight holes in four-under with four birdies to haul herself back into contention for the weekend.
The 74 was a solid effort on a day when the course yielded only 13 sub-par rounds, while just seven players managed to finish at even par. With the cut to be decided after the second round, Diksha remains well placed to challenge for a weekend berth.
