Anice Das (born 31 December 1985 in Mumbai) is a retired Indian-born Dutch speed skater, specialized in sprint distances.

Professional career

Das made her first appearance at the

world single distance championships for the first time. That same month, she competed at the world sprint championships
for a second time. She was plagued by illness, including fever, in the week leading up to the event. She did manage to improve her personal best on 1000 meters in both races, finishing 18th overall.

On 28 December 2017, Das won the 500 meter event at the Dutch qualification tournament for the 2018 Olympic Games, beating all expected favorites. On 18 February 2018, she ended in 19th place at the Olympic 500 meter event, after skating in the first run without having an opponent in the other lane.[citation needed]

On 17 March 2020, Das announced her retirement from professional speed skating.[citation needed]

Personal life

Das was born in Mumbai, India and was adopted by a Dutch family as an infant, along with her twin sister.[2]
