(Reuters) - New Zealand's world number one Lydia Ko and second-ranked Park In-bee of South Korea are set to battle it out for an array of LPGA Tour honours at the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship this week in Naples, Florida.
Ko, back in action after taking a fortnight's break, is in pole position to clinch the Player of the Year award, the money list title and retain her number one ranking but Park, a winner of two major championships this season, is in close pursuit.
"It's so hard when you actually have like one competitor (and) you want to play better than that one person," Park told reporters while preparing for Thursday's opening round at Tiburon Golf Club in the $2 million event.
