Experienced golfer Diksha Dagar is poised for a comeback as she leads a formidable five-member Indian team at the 2024 Ladies Italian Open, which begins tomorrow. After a rare missed cut last week, Dagar, who is gearing up for the Olympic Games in Paris, aims to climb the Ladies Order of Merit ladder.

Joining Dagar in the event are fellow Indian golfers including rookie Pranavi Urs, seasoned players Tvesa Malik, Vani Kapoor, and Ridhima Dilawari, all set to compete at the Golf Nazionale, hosting the event for the first time. Dagar's impressive record from last year includes nine Top-10 finishes. This year, she has already bagged two Top-10 finishes, including third place at the Joburg Open.

Dagar will tee off in the afternoon session, alongside Tvesa Malik, who recently celebrated her first international win on the Sunshine Tour in South Africa. Ridhima Dilawari will also play in the afternoon, while Pranavi Urs and Vani Kapoor will start in the morning. Among locals, Alessandra Fanali, ranked highest among Italian women players, is eyeing her first win after finishing runner-up last year.
