US OPEN PROFILE

Despite turning 44 earlier in the year, workaholic Singh shows little sign of going over the hill. He won his 31st US Tour event at Bay Hill in March and has posted a bunch of typically consistent top 20 finishes since then, including a third at Wentworth recently. At halfway, he was a leading contender at the US Masters this spring before fragile putting sank his chances at Augusta. However, he does boast a superb US Open record with five top-10 finishes in the last eight years and always relishes the toughest tests.
