Aditi all set for Pro debut at Victoria Open in Australia

Teen star Aditi Ashok us set to make her professional debut at the Australian Oates Victorian Open beginning Thursday.
The 17-year-old from Bangalore, who took the Ladies European Tour by storm by winning the Qualifying School late last year. That superb performance earned her a spot from the Victoria Open organisers.
The event is not part of the LET but is part of the Ladies Australian PGA and it will see a lot LET players tee off. The event also assumes importance as many of the women professionals are looking to boost their position in the Race to Rio Olympics.

Aditi, despite turning pro this week, is currently 58th and the Top-60 will make it to Rio. So, Aditi, who plays this week and next in ISPS Handa New Zealand Open, is hoping to put some points against her name early in the season. She will then take a month off to sit for her school leaving examinations.
Aditi has played a lot of LET events, but this will be the first she will tee up as a pro, after winning the Q-School in December. After March, Aditi will play as many events as she can.
In the first round, Aditi will play with Chloe Leurquin of Belgium and Nanna Madsen of Denmark. The field includes leading LET names like legend Karrie Webb, Trish Johnson, Becky Brewerton, Valentine Derrey, Amy Boulden and Becky Morgan among others.

The event will be played at the 13th Beach Links at Barwon Heads near Geelong and at the Creek and Beach Courses.
