ADITI ASHOK
AGE: 26 5 LADIES EUROPEAN TOUR WINS 4TH AT THE TOKYO OLYMPICS
August 2021. "Are you watching golf? This cute Bengaluru girl.. She needs some birdies. With eagles, she could even win gold." "Bloody hell, somebody get her the damn birds. So, are they like good luck charms?" Judgmental silence. Google search: birdies eagles golf.
Even as I frantically read up on golf-related terms, the search term "golf rules" was at its peak in Google's trends for India. The reason was Aditi Ashok. The unheralded golfer, who was ranked 178th in the world before Tokyo 2020, got off to a flying start at the Kasumigaseki Country Club's East Course. The parâ the number of strokes a proficient golfer would need to complete the courseâwas 71. Aditi finished the 18-hole course in 67 strokes in the first roundâthe same as the world number one Nelly Korda of the US.

Man-eaters don't spare women
Critics say Narendra Modiâs decade-long rule has been one of jobless growth. Factories produced more, companies earned more, owners profited more, the government earned more; but fewer hands were hired, or those who were hired got work for fewer days. Putting the last two together, economists said the Indian economy generated fewer âman-daysâ.
Decolonising the mindset
The vision of a Viksit Bharat hinges on India T breaking from the shackles of a colonial mindset and embodying the freedom of being unapologetically Indian. The laws of any nation are the cornerstone of its growth. The legal system offers the stability and adaptability essential for a country to thrive. The laws must be simple to understand and specific in their consequence.

Couture's creepy corridors
If one is spending a summer in New York, any summer in New York, an absolute must-do is to spend an afternoon at the cityâs Metropolitan Museum of Art, on the edge of Central Park, just gawking in gobsmacked awe at the annual fashion exhibition the museumâs Costume Institute puts together.
Stree 2 has given us hope
The unprecedented success of Stree 2 is the best news we have had in the recent times and with an unabashedly feminist agenda, has comprehensively out-performed Sandeep Reddy Vanga's toxic masculine star-studded Animal at the box office is (to me, at least) kind of the cinematic equivalent of Awadhesh Prasad winning Ayodhya-it redeems my faith in the inherent decency of Indians.
