Hitaashee also impressed last week as she finished tied 12th in her first LET appearance this season. Tvesa will be keen to find her rhythm after she failed to make the cut at the Dutch Ladies Open.
Diksha has enjoyed a great season with four Top-10 finishes. In nine starts, she has missed the cut just once and one event in Australia was cancelled.
Diksha is now lying fifth and her best end-of-the-season finish on the LET Order of Merit was third in 2023.
The current leader of the Order of Merit, Mimi Rhodes of England, will look to continue her winning ways as she has already won three of the seven LET events this year.

The Jabra Ladies Open also presents players a chance to qualify for the Majors. LET winners this year will automatically qualify for the AIG Women's Open, which is to be held at Royal Porthcawl later this year.
