The 2011 LPGA of Japan Tour was the 44th season of the LPGA of Japan Tour, the professional golf tour for women operated by the Ladies Professional Golfers' Association of Japan. It consisted of 34 golf tournaments, all played in Japan. Four events were canceled due to the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.

Ahn Sun-ju won the Order of Merit and had the lowest scoring average. Lee Ji-Hee finished most often (19 times) inside the top-10.[1]
