Tandon went on to compete in the Asian Games at the age of 13, and her first World Championship at 16.[1] At the 2001 28th junior National aquatic championship, Tandon won the 200 m individual medley, setting a new record.[5] In 2002, Tandon finished 8th in the 100 m freestyle event at the 100m freestyle at the Asian Games in Busan.[6] At the 57th Senior National Aquatic Championship in 2003, Tandon broke the Indian women's 50 freestyle record, with a time of 26.61 s.[3] She won five individual gold medals in the competition, and was declared best swimmer for the third consecutive year.[4] At the 2004 Athens Olympics, Tandon competed in both the 50 m and the 100 m freestyle, the first Indian swimmer to qualify for two separate events in an Olympic competition.[1] In 2005, Shikha held seven national records,[5] and was the first Indian woman to hold so many simultaneously.[1] In 2005, she was honoured with an Arjuna Award. At the 2006 Melbourne Commonwealth Games, Tandon reached the semi-finals of both 50 m backstroke and 50 m freestyle.[6] In the same year, she became the first female Indian to win an international medal for a short-course event, taking bronze at the indoor Asian age-group swimming Championships in Bangkok.[4] In 2007 Tandon had surgery on her shoulder, and missed many of the season's events.[7] In 2009, after completing her dual master's degree in Biology and Biotechnology from Case Western Reserve University, she applied at the USADA, and became the first Indian to be employed at the USADA.[8] Personal lifeTandon has a younger brother called Shobhit, who suffered from asthma.
