Vijay Singh has come a long way since the days when he worked as a golf pro in Borneo or moonlighted as a bouncer at a nightclub in Scotland.

The former world No. 1 has made more than $57 million in 17 years on the PGA TOUR. He reached another milestone on Sunday when he made the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational the 32nd victory of his career.

No other international player has won more PGA TOUR events than the 45-year-old World Golf Hall of Famer from Fiji. Here's a look at the top 10.

Player Wins Birthplace
Vijay Singh 32 Fiji
Harry Cooper 31 England

Gary Player 24 South Africa
Macdonald Smith 24 Scotland
Willie Macfarlane 21 Scotland
James Barnes 21 England
Greg Norman 20 Australia
Jim Ferrier 18 Australia
Nick Price 18 Zimbabwe
