India's Golf star Aditi Ashok on Sunday bagged a historic Silver medal for India at the Asian Games 2023 after missing the Gold medal in Hangzhou. Aditi finished the four-round event with a score of 17 under 271 to take the second prize.
Notably, Aditi Ashok is the first Indian woman to win a medal in golf at the Asiad. India had earlier won six medals at the continental showpiece but all of those were won by men. This is India's first Asiad medal in the sport after 13 years. India last bagged a medal in 2010.
