She stood atop the podium at the Final after defeating Sasha Cohen to become the first Japanese woman to take gold at the competition.

Suguri left Sato after the 2004 World Championships after she lost two competitions to Miki Ando, who was also coached by Sato at the time.

She moved to Chicago in the United States to train with Oleg Vasiliev in the autumn of 2004.

In the 2004–05 season, Suguri placed fourth at both of her Grand Prix assignments.
