Singh’s success continued as he secured multiple wins on the European Tour in 1990 and again in 1992. Between 1990 and 1993, he maintained a strong presence in Asian and African tournaments. In 1993, Singh joined the PGA Tour in the United States, earning his first title at The Barclays and the PGA Tour Rookie of the Year award.
Over the following years, Singh amassed several victories—including the Phoenix Open and another Barclays win in 1995, followed by successes at the Buick Open and the Memorial Tournament in 1997. A significant milestone in his career came in 1998 when he won the PGA Championship at Sahalee Country Club, his first Major title.
Singh continued to dominate, winning the Masters Tournament in 2000 with a three-stroke lead over Ernie Els. In 2001, he recorded a tour-best 14 top-10 finishes and went on to win the Shell Houston Open in 2002, setting a new 72-hole scoring record at 266. That year, he also triumphed at the Tour Championship.
In 2004, Singh won the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am and recorded nine PGA Tour victories, reclaiming the world number one ranking that year. However, in 2005, he lost that top spot to Tiger Woods after Woods won the Ford Championship at Doral. By 2009, Singh was sidelined due to a back injury but remained one of the highest earners in the sport, with career earnings exceeding $60 million. His net worth is estimated at $75 million.
Vijay Singh married Ardena Seth in 1985. The couple has one son. Despite his prominence, as of now, there have been no major biographical films portraying Singh’s career.
