Vijay Singh, 62, Makes Cut at Sony Open

Published 17 January 2026

At the Sony Open in Hawaii, 62-year-old Vijay Singh advanced to the weekend rounds on Friday, becoming the oldest player to make a PGA Tour cut since 2023 and marking his return to competitive play after years away from the circuit.

The Fijian, a three-time major champion with 34 PGA Tour victories, posted scores of 68 and 70 at Waialae Country Club in Honolulu to finish at 2-under par, securing his spot in the final two rounds by one stroke. The cut line fell at 1-under. Singh now stands tied for 47th, seven shots behind a five-way lead at 9-under held by defending champion Nick Taylor, Davis Riley, Kevin Roy, S.H. Kim and Adrien Dumont de Chassart.

Singh's performance came in his first PGA Tour start since 2021 and his first non-major event since then. He opened Thursday with a 2-under 68, overcoming two double bogeys with timely birdies, including a highlight at the par-3 16th where he holed out from a greenside bunker. On Friday, he steadied with an even-par 70, battling the cut line throughout to advance. His effort outpaced several prominent players who missed the weekend, including Keegan Bradley, Collin Morikawa, Tony Finau, Hideki Matsuyama, Russell Henley and Gary Woodland.
