Diksha, who was third in the LET Order of Merit last year, was tied-seventh and two shots behind the leaders. Vani Kapoor and Pranavi Urs also had fine starts but gave up those gains to drop down later as the Ladies European Tour opened for the season. Vani shot an even-par 73 after a double-bogey on the closing 18th and was tied-16. Pranavi was 2-under after 15 holes before she had a double-bogey on the 16th and a closing bogey on the 18th.
