Nasa Hataoka is the defending champion.

She also won this event in 2018.

The field includes 10 of the top 25 players in the world rankings.

World No. 2 Jeeno Thitikul is the highest-ranked player in the field this week.

Last week's winner Miyu Yamashita, ranked No. 4, is also playing.

Hyo Joo Kim, ranked No. 6, is the only other player inside the top 10.

There is no break on the LPGA schedule after this tournament.

The tour heads directly to Florida for the Annika Sorenstam event.

The season concludes the following week in Naples, Florida, with the CME Group Tour Championship.

World No. 1 Nelly Korda is expected to play in both of those events.

For context on how the event works: The Toto Japan Classic is a standard 72-hole stroke-play tournament on the LPGA Tour.

A cut is made after 36 holes, typically to the top 65 players plus ties.

Players who miss the cut do not receive prize money.

If there is a tie for the lead after 72 holes, an LPGA Tour playoff format is used.

The playoff is sudden death, meaning the first player to win a hole outright takes the title.
