Victory delights record-breaking Singh

Vijay Singh was delighted as he started the new season with a two-stroke victory at the $5.5m (€4.2m) Mercedes-Benz Championship to become the most successful over-40-year-old in PGA Tour history.

The 43-year-old led throughout the final round, carding a solid, bogey-free three-under-par 70 to edge out Adam Scott as he finished on a 14-under-par 278 on Maui’s Kapalua Plantation course.
