HONOLULU — Peter Malnati is still a fresh face on the PGA Tour, but he’s not so new to golf.
Vijay Singh has been around since balata was the rage, but he’s open to fresh ideas.
That the two of them crossed paths to share the stage at Waialae CC for more than four hours Thursday in Round 1 of the Sony Open is further proof that this game of golf sometimes cannot be explained.
Malnati, who was born three years after Singh won the 1984 Malaysian PGA Championship, couldn’t help but do a double-take when he saw his playing competitor stand over an early chip shot.
