Japan's Sato set for Sanya

Looking for back-to-back titles to open PGA Tour Series-China season

Taihei Sato last week became the first Japanese to win a PGA Tour Series-China tournament. Now he's shooting to be just the second player to win the first two events of a season.

In the tour's four previous seasons, only China's Dou Zecheng opened with back-to-back victories - at the 2016 St. Andrews Henan Open in his hometown, followed by the United Investment Real Estate Wuhan Open a week later.
