Diksha leads four Indians as LET resumes at Dutch Ladies Open

Eemnes, the Netherlands, June 18: After a two-week break in the Ladies European Tour schedule, Diksha Dagar leads a group of four Indian as they return to action at the Dutch Ladies Open, hoping to build momentum as the European summer swing gathers pace.

Leading the Indian challenge will be Diksha Dagar, Pranavi Urs, Avani Prashanth and Hitaashee Bakshi, all of whom have enjoyed encouraging moments this season and will be aiming for a strong finish at Goyer Golf & Country Club in Eemnes, the Netherlands, from June 19-21.

Diksha, the most experienced of the Indian quartet, has once again been India's leading performer on the LET this year. The left-hander has been a model of consistency, making regular cuts and remaining well placed in the Order of Merit. Having won twice on the LET during her career, she will be looking to convert another solid week into a title challenge.

Pranavi Urs has continued to grow in confidence during her second full LET season. The Bengaluru golfer has shown flashes of the form that made her one of India's brightest prospects and will hope the break has helped her recharge before the busy run of tournaments across Europe.

Avani Prashanth, one of the Tour's promising young professionals, has also displayed steady improvement in her rookie campaign. The former world No. 1 amateur from India has adapted well to life on the LET and will look to string together four strong rounds against a competitive international field.

Joining them is Hitaashee Bakshi, who earned her LET card through Qualifying School and has been gaining valuable experience in her first full season on the circuit. The Delhi golfer has steadily settled into Tour life and will be keen to make the most of every opportunity during the summer schedule.

The Dutch Ladies Open marks the LET's return after a fortnight's pause and ushers in a busy stretch of tournaments across Europe. Many players used the break to return home, recover and prepare for the demanding weeks ahead.

Among those eager to resume is American Brianna Navarrosa, who returns to a venue where she enjoyed her best LET finish last year. After opening with a 75 in the 2025 edition, she rallied brilliantly with rounds of 68 and 66 to finish tied second, making Goyer Golf & Country Club one of her favourite stops on the calendar. She believes accurate driving will again be the key on a course known for its tight, tree-lined fairways.

Another player arriving with confidence is South Africa's Caitlyn Macnab, who produced a memorable victory in the Waterfall City Tournament of Champions last week. The LET rookie became the first woman to win the mixed event after holing an eagle putt on the final hole and will hope to carry that momentum into the Netherlands.
