Diksha Dagar (born 14 December 2000) is an Indian professional golfer who is also deaf. She is a two-time gold medallist at the Deaflympics. Dagar represented India at the 2018 Asian Games, and in 2019 became the second Indian female golfer, after Aditi Ashok, to win on the Ladies European Tour, achieving the feat at age 18 and becoming the youngest Indian woman to do so. In July 2021, she received an invitation from the International Golf Federation to compete in the women's individual event at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics following a late withdrawal of South African golfer Paula Reto. With this, she became the first golfer in history to have competed in both the Olympics and the Deaflympics.
