To Vijay Singh, Augusta National Golf Club is a puzzle where it is "almost impossible to fit" the pieces together for an entire tournament.

Jim Furyk and Vijay Singh both said it's strange territory to shoot 1-under-par 71 and still move into contention at the Masters Tournament.

Vijay Singh's prize for winning the season-opening Mercedes-Benz Championship was a set of keys to a new car, which he handed over to his teenage son as a gift.
