"The top-two will lead India&rsquo;s challenge and I&rsquo;m pretty close in getting there. Olympics is a big motivation and a good performance will give the sport a big boost," the&nbsp;unassuming Kolkata lad told PTI today while undergoing a rehab to treat his neck sprain that he sustained while working out. The 37-year-old who finished fourth in the 2015 Asian Tour rankings is tipped to make the cut along with India numero uno and world ranked 40 Anirban Lahiri, who&rsquo;s also coached by the Divecha.
