(Reuters) - With three major championships to his name, Vijay Singh rarely feels the need to prove himself on a golf course these days but the former world number one admits to feeling the pressure this week ahead of the Fiji International.

The Florida-based 51-year-old, now in the twilight of his career, has returned to the land of his birth for the first time in eight years for the inaugural $1 million (594 million pounds) tournament, which starts on Thursday at the Natadola Bay Golf Course.
