One of India's most accomplished golfers, the 37-year-old secured four top-10 finishes, including a runner-up finish at LIV Golf Andalucia, where he narrowly lost to Sergio Garcia in a playoff. Lahiri acknowledges that while he has been competitive, his performances have been inconsistent and he is determined to "stick to the basics". "I am very excited to come back to DLF. It's in brilliant condition. Having played here so many times, I've had good rounds and not-so-good rounds, but I've learned from all those experiences," the two-time Olympian said.

"I'm just going to stick to the basics - hit fairways and greens - and focus on doing things right this week. The world-class field boasts of LIV Golf stars like reigning US Open champion Bryson DeChambeau and Joaquin Niemann, the 2024 International Series rankings winner along with top Indian contender SSP Chawrasia, a four-time European Tour winner.
