New Delhi, July 6: Udayan Mane on Tuesday officially booked himself a maiden Olympic berth, becoming the second Indian male golfer after Anirban Lahiri to be Tokyo-bound for the mega-event starting July 23.
The 30-year-old Mane, currently the second-highest ranked Indian in the world at 356, was all set to make the cut after Argentina’s Emiliano Grillo announced his withdrawal from the quadrennial event on June 24. The official announcement was made on Tuesday with Mane finding himself at the 60th spot in the Olympic golf ranking list which was made available on the International Golf Federation’s (IGF) website.
Mane, who qualified on the basis of being first reserve against Grillo’s name, alongwith Lahiri will make up a two-member Indian men’s team in the 60-player field which will tee off at the Kasumigaseki Country Club on July 29. (PTI)
