Vijay Gets Tough


As I mentioned last week, Vijay Singh was a contender to win in the first tournament on the PGA Tour in Hawaii this weekend. Vijay came out strong and beat Adam Scott and up and comer Trevor Immelman with authority. After the victory, Vijay sounded intense and pissed off at being written off because of his age and sub-par season last year. "Anyone who says 43 is old, they can go to hell" Vijay proclaimed during the trophy presentation. Reportedly, Vijay did two-a day workouts in Hawaii for two weeks followed by hitting 400 balls and then playing 18 holes. Seems like the Fijian is tuned up and ready to go, while Tiger proclaimed last week that he hadn't practiced enough to play in the Mercedes. Vijay turns 44 shortly and may be back at the top of his game. A Tiger-Vijay renewed rivarly will be good for golf. Boom it baby!
