We demonstrate strong anisotropic spin-orbit interaction in graphene induced by monolayer WS2. Direct comparison between graphene/monolayer WS2 and graphene/bulk WS2 system in magnetotransport measurements reveals that monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide can induce much stronger SOI than bulk. Detailed theoretical analysis of the weak-antilocalization curves gives an estimated spin-orbit energy (Eso) more than 10 meV. The dominant z to -z symmetric spin-orbit interaction demonstrates strong valley-Zeeman spin-orbit interaction induced in graphene, consistent with the recent theoretical study. Dramatic increase of resistance around the Dirac point with decreasing temperature suggests the existence of the spin-orbit gap at the Dirac point.
