Sakuma Shuri dominated the Japan Ladies Professional Golf Association (JLPGA) Tour last year. She claimed four victories and swept three major titles: prize money leader, Player of the Year, and lowest scoring average. Sakuma continues her dominance this season, leading all three categories after winning the Daikin Orchid Ladies Golf Tournament, the season opener.

The Taiwan Foxconn Ladies Golf Tournament tees off Thursday for four days at Orient Golf and Country Club in Taiwan (par 72). The event is co-sanctioned by the Taiwan Ladies Professional Golf Association (TLPGA) Tour and the JLPGA Tour. Sakuma, seeking her second consecutive title, is in the field.
