Thanks. From what I've seen, Singh seems to be as prominent in the Indian culture as Smith is in ours......

“Singh” is the last name of *every* Punjabi Sikh or descendant of Punjabi Sikhs. It means “lion,” iirc. After generations in Fiji, Vijay Singh probably doesn’t know Sikh from a hole in the head, but the name places his way-back family origins.

I hope he does well this weekend: he’s my favorite pro golfer!
