Kuala Lumpur - AFP

World number one Yani Tseng will look to extend her dominance of women's golf when she chases her seventh tournament win of the year against a star-studded field at the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia. The Taiwanese player, 22, is full of confidence after already winning six tournaments this year, including last week’s LPGA Hana Bank Championship in South Korea. She is the top draw at the $1.9 million event, which tees off in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday, but will need to contend with a top-flight field that includes nine of the world’s top 10 golfers. "Obviously, I’m feeling confident, especially after winning in South Korea last week," she said. Tseng, who is the youngest golfer -- man or woman -- to win five majors, is the undisputed number one on the Rolex Rankings. She attributed her form to her enjoyment of the game. "People say I have had a good year, but I just enjoy the game and I think that’s why I’ve been doing well," said Tseng, who won this year’s LPGA Championship and the Women’s British Open. "Every day, every hole, I just focus and try my best. "For me, I can easily get over not playing well one week and focus on the next tournament." The Malaysian event, now in its second year, will also feature top ten players Suzann Petterson, Cristie Kerr, Na Yeon Choi, Stacy Lewis, Brittany Lincicome, Ai Miyazato, and Paula Creamer. Michelle Wie, ranked number 14 in the world, and defending champion Jimin Kang also have entered the four-day stroke play event, which has no cut and is being played at the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club (KLGCC). Kerr, the American world number three, who finished 35th in South Korea, admitted she has yet to fully recover from a tendonitis injury to her right wrist that is causing her severe pain. "It is still not 100 percent right but I’m managing the pain," said the former world number one. "I’ve played through a broken rib, I’ve played through knee issues, neck issues, but this is the worst pain I’ve ever experienced but I’m managing it."
