Tseng hopes to end year at the top

CHINESE Taipei's Tseng Yani says she aims to become the world's No. 1 woman golfer this year.

Tseng claimed her third LPGA victory of the current campaign when she won in Arkansas on Sunday. Other 2010 victories were at the Kraft Nabisco Championship and the Women's British Open.

Speaking to reporters in Taipei yesterday, Tseng said her game needs to reach even higher levels if she is to improve on her current No. 4 ranking.

"I have to work on my putting and stamina ... and make more birdies in the upcoming tournaments," she said.

"I have a good opportunity to become world No. 1 this year."

Following her victory in Arkansas, Tseng is reckoned by many to become the next dominant female player following the recent retirements of Annika Sorenstam and Lorena Ochoa.

"In my heart they are still the best women's players in the world," Tseng said. "I hope in the future I can also be involved in more charity efforts just like them."
