The LPGA tour pointed it out in their Instagram post. First time in the history of LPGA and the PGA tour, Annika has won the TOTO Japan Classic five times in a row.

You might think that the G.O.A.T. has also won consecutive years then; why is she the first? Woods has won three straight, that too six times, but not at the same event.

Hence, she is the one with the record now.
