Diksha got good final charges but lost the playoffs and Avani ranked 16th
India’s Diksha Dagar was away from winning the third Ladies’ European Tour title before losing the playoffs in the Lalla Meryem Cup Golf Championship in Rabat.
The 24-year-old started with a 14th-place finish below 3 shots, setting her 9-shot club goal with a 67-shot high-end card in the final round.
Cara Gainer of England later joined her, Nuria Iturrioz reached 10 in one phase, while Shannon Nan fell.
Diksha did his best and it was still a good start to the season. After the day that started the T-14 seat, she made seven birdies in the last 18 holes and was the only day on the 14th hole.
Diksha will now travel to Saudi Arabia with Gainer for next week’s PIF Saudi Ladies International.

Avani Prashanth, who debuted, dropped three bogeys in ninth with some wrong shots and three shots in the middle of the round, but managed to shoot 70 and into the top 20 and finished 16th Bit.
She does have the top 10 ending, but when she’s still an amateur, those guys come.
Fray Tvesa Malik’s third Indian missed the layoffs.
Diksha Birds were second, fourth, eighth, 11th, and 13th, when she was under 5 years old. She dropped a shot on the 14th, but knocked off the birdie on the 15th and 17th, dropping 6 shots.
Gainer won her first European Ladies Tour (LET) victory as she won the playoffs against Diksha after she improved on the crowded rankings.
Entering the final day, only two different shots separate the top ten, making it a tense ranking list with many players fighting for the season’s opener.
The 29-year-old rolled two, four and eight in the hole in the hole, and then jumped three more in the last nine bounces. She lost only two photos in the first nine games.
Sweden’s Kajsa Arwefjall is the eighth highest rookie, marking a solid start to her first Let season.
Tan entered the final round with a one-shot lead, gaining eight-under par after 54 holes. The Singaporean won the season’s opener in Kenya last year, with back-to-back birdies on the 11th and 12th holes, and 15 birdies.
The 20-year-old lost two shots on the front and back nine to finish third.
Two players – Lauren Walsh of Ireland and Nuria Iturrioz of Spain – ranked fourth in three rounds by under par. Walsh climbed 17 positions on the final day, trailing 68 (-5) a shot behind the Clubhouse record.
Iturrioz is familiar with the course and has won a good record in winning competitions in 2016 and 2019.
Next week, LET will travel to Riyadh to attend the PIF Saudi Ladies International, which will be held from February 13 to 15.
