She and her brother Yogesh, who were both born with a hearing impairment, were introduced to the sport by their father.

General Interest

General
LATE CALL-UP
She received a late call-up to compete at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. She got the call after South African golfer Paula Reto tested positive for COVID-19 and Austrian Sarah Schober withdrew from the competition. (indiagolfdigest.com, 02 Aug 2021)

HEARING IMPAIRMENT
She has had a hearing impairment since birth and started wearing a hearing aid at age six. "To be able to play professional golf is all thanks to my family and the people around me for offering me guidance, support and encouragement. Being born deaf, I never knew what it was like to hear or that I was missing anything. It's this attitude that has allowed me to turn pro and compete with the attitude that I can play with the best."
