Three majors and the most dedicated practitioner in golf — Vijay Singh ended Tiger Woods' world number one reign through sheer volume of victories.

Vijay Singh's achievements in golf were built on technical discipline, physical preparation and competitive commitment that allowed performance to be maintained at the very top across multiple seasons.
