Suzann Pettersen braces for tough battle at Royal Melbourne
Suzann Pettersen is steeling for a big showdown that will see her come face to face against the world number one Yani Tseng at Royal Melbourne this week.
Hailing from Norway, Pettersen currently ranks 2nd in the world golf rankings and is regarded as a tough competitor. 
With the Women’s Australian Open set to start from Thursday, the big aim for the world number two is to chase Taiwanese Tseng.
Although snatching the top spot from Tseng will not be easy for the Norwegian star, there will be plenty of chances to win the prestigious tournament.
In addition to the current number one on the field, there are other players who definitely have what it takes to spice up an event. 
However, Pettersen appears to have kept her eyes on what her biggest rival is going to do on the course of Royal Melbourne.
Despite what observers have been saying about her, she has her own idea about what she is going to do when she sets foot on the course on Thursday.
However, the biggest concern for Pettersen is the current world number one.
Tseng, who is aiming to further strengthen her position in the world ranking, said that she will try to play her magic game at Royal Melbourne.
She added that giving a let-up in the match will prove disastrous and this is why she has decided to win the title at any cost.
Tseng shared some of her big plans for the current season with the media. She said she had to battle some fitness problems and fixing them was her first priority.
Talking about the Women’s Australian Open, Tseng said she is aware that her 1st position is vulnerable if she messes up in the rounds.
However, due to the focused training that she had before coming to Australia, Tseng appears to be in a solid position.
"My trainer has been working with me, and my coach has gotten my swing more consistent. I can't wait to get out and play and just enjoy the game," she shared.
Pettersen also acknowledged that Tseng is the best player by far.
“It's always been a dream of mine," she said. "And I definitely think my game is there. Yani's got a great head start over all of us and it's probably going to take more than a season to catch up with her," she said.
