SSP Chawrasia is a tired but relieved man. Chawrasia, Indias second-ranked male golfer, took a flight from Scotland to India and learnt upon landing in his native Kolkata that he will be part of the three-member Indian contingent when golf returns as an Olympic sport next month in Rio.I was sure I would qualify, but I was still checking my phone from time to time, Chawrasia told ESPN, dismissing suggestions that the absence of the worlds top four golfers will take the sheen off the event. The field is still a strong one and I dont think the withdrawals will have any effect.Chawrasia, who will be in Brazil for the first time in his life, will be following a rigorous training schedule over the next three weeks, and is not sure if he will participate in any event before the Olympics.Ill be going to the Royal Calcutta Golf Club for three hours in the morning and two hours every evening, and then Ill also be keeping up my gym work to stay in the best shape, he said.There wont be any first time blues though for Anirban Lahiri, who won silver at the 2006 Asian Games in Doha in the team competition alongside Gaganjeet Bhullar, Chiragh Kumar and Joseph Chakola.Right from the time Anirban was a junior, weve had some long-term goals for him, Vijay Divecha, Lahiris coach, told ESPN from Toronto, Canada. (Getting a chance to play) majors is obviously something every aspiring golfer aims for. And getting to go to the Olympics is just a fantastic bonus.Divecha, who is travelling with Bengaluru-born Lahiri to make sure his preparations for Rio are up to the mark in the busy schedule ahead in the next month, is also pleased that Aditi Ashok will be part of the womens competition this year. Weve known Aditi since she was seven years old. Its great to have her as part of the team.Wholesale Sports Jerseys ., for the next three years with the signings on Monday of Daryl Townsend and Michael Carter.
