PACIFIC PALISADES, Calif. – It takes a lot to stop Vijay Singh once he’s in the middle of one of his legendary range sessions.
But Singh paused when asked about Tropical Cyclone Winston, a category five storm that struck his native Fiji, one day earlier.
“Do you know what the latest is?” he asked.
When the response was no, Singh hopped on the Internet and pulled up a video that showed satellite imagery of the storm making landfall.
“I have some family, a lot of friends, and people I know there,” said a concerned Singh, 52, who grew up on the western side of the South Pacific country.
