Diksha joins India's top woman golfer, Aditi Ashok, who is playing her second Olympic Games. Aditi landed in the Japanese capital much earlier and said she was looking forward to the campaign.
India's golf challenge at the ongoing Olympics got a boost with Diksha being given a late entry into the women's golf competition beginning August 4.
Diksha will join Aditi Ashok in the team. It is the first Olympic appearance for the left-handed Diksha, while Aditi will be playing her second Olympics.
The national body also recommended Udayan Mane, Rashid Khan and Diksha Dagar for the Arjuna award.
Dagar finds herself seven shots behind the leader, who is 15-under and five ahead of second-placed Julia Engstrom (68).
Dagar follows Aditi Ashok, who in 2016 became the first Indian to win on the LET.
