SINGAPORE: A amazing 2024 promises to get even better for 20- yr- old Shannon Tan, after she made the slice for the future Olympics.
Tan will become the first golf from Singapore to play at the Games in this way.
Calling it “mind- blowing” and a “great dignity and wonderful chance” to sail the Singapore flag in Paris travel August, she told CNA:” I look forward to taking it one shot at a time”.
Just 60 people and 60 ladies are scheduled to play golf at the Games, according to the Olympic Golf Rankings, which determine their eligibility.
The Olympic qualifying age for the top 15 players in the standard planet golf rankings is four golfers per nation, though that number is increased.
The top two qualified people per nation are then included in the Olympic Golf Rankings, provided that the nation does not already own at least two players in the top 15.
With the qualification period coming to an end on Monday ( Jun 24 ), Tan placed 41st in the Olympic Golf Rankings.
A full of 23 Team Singapore sports, including Tan, had qualified for the Games as of Monday.
A HUGE SACRIFICE
Tan, now Singapore’s best female golfer, turned specialized about five months ago.
She made history shortly after when she won , the Magical Kenya Ladies Open in February, becoming the first Singaporean to earn a Ladies European Tour ( LET )  , title.
The Magical Kenya Ladies Open, which I won on my LET album and less than a fortnight later than that, made for a job spotlight, Tan, who is ranked 105th in the world, said.
” I’ve thought about the “what was haves” and “what does haves,” but I’ve also come to terms with how much experience and knowledge I’ve gained.
