“It feels good to relive the memory of winning my first amateur title here at Chandigarh Golf Club 16 years ago and it does seem like a lifetime ago. It was a phase when I was able to break through and it acts as a sense of belief that I can play well on the Chandigarh Golf Course. It is very important that one hits a very good tee shot. If you can do that, you put yourself in all the four days of competition.

While I played one pending tournament of the 2019-2020 season, playing in four tournaments in the 2020-2021 season has boosted my performance. There were a lot of positives for me in every event and I played some good golf in each tournament. While I trained in India prior to going back to the USA, I had to take my time to adjust to USA conditions where the greens are much faster and there are different type of grasses on different courses,” Lahiri said.

While there were instances of some of the golfers testing positive for Covid-19 prior to the tournament week like world number Dustin Johnson in October apart from three golfers testing positive prior to the RSM Classic last month, Lahiri believes that the PGA Tour is taking all the precautions.

Golfers are not allowed to dine with anybody else or go out of hotel. As a golfer, it is also about exercising good hygiene. Last month, in Bermuda, fans were allowed with proper social distancing in place and it was good to see that.

With the qualification for next year Tokyo Olympics running till June next year, Lahiri, who is currently ranked 489th in world rankings and is the ninth-placed Indian golfer in the rankings, believes that he still has time to book a spot in his second Olympics. “During the lockdown, I got a chance to rework on some of my basics and techniques with my coach Vijay Divecha. It was about some of minor mistakes which had crept in my technique. We worked on my posture and stance apart from my movement through the process of hitting the ball and it helped my game in the USA,” Lahiri concluded.
