Fiji born golfer Vijay Singh has won the Toshiba Golf Classic in California.

For nearly 10 years, Singh failed to win an individual PGA Tour or PGA Tour Champions event until his 18th‑hole birdie gave him a one‑stroke victory at the Toshiba Classic.

34 PGA Tour victories landed him in the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2006.

He won nine times in 2004 alone and three times in 2008.

Singh still splits his time between the PGA Tour and the PGA Tour Champions.

He has played four PGA Tour events and only three senior events this year, though he said he intends to play more frequently on the latter tour.

Singh has received US$270,000 after winning the tournament.
