Vijay Singh wins Deutsche Bank Championship

Vijay Singh, helped by three monster birdie putts, eased to his third PGA Tour title in five weeks with a commanding five-shot victory at the Deutsche Bank Championship on Monday.

Three off the pace overnight, the Fijian world number five fired a superb eight-under-par 63 in difficult, sun-drenched conditions at the TPC Boston for a 22-under total of 262.

Singh broke clear of a congested leaderboard with an outward nine of four-under 32 before tightening his grip with an astonishing putting display on a course running fast and firm.

“I feel incredible right now,” a beaming Singh said after the victory. “It was a tough day and I knew the greens were going to be firm. I drove the ball beautifully and kept the ball in play, never got myself into much trouble. I’ve never felt this comfortable on the greens,” added the 45-year-old who has recently convinced himself that he is the best putter in the world. I’ve been struggling all year but I had a good attitude change.”
