Richard HeathcoteGolf fans are hoping for a Rory McIlroy resurgence in 2019, because when he's on, there are few players as electric to watch as the four-time major winner.

While meeting with the media at the Sentry Tournament of Champions, a tournament McIlroy qualified for by way of his win at Bay Hill last season, he was asked about arguably the biggest hot-button issue in golf right now: the new Rules. First, he tweaked a voluntary rules meeting for the players, saying “that rules meeting was voluntary, and I voluntarily didn't go,” before bursting into laughter.

High schoolers have always been susceptible to dangerous trends. From drugs to eraser burns to whatever the hell it is kids are doing these days, 14-18 year olds are regularly led like lemmings to the cliff, all too often by older role models who they look up to. Take Zion Williamson for example. By most accounts, the moon-booted Duke freshman has been a model citizen since he began jumping out of Cameron Indoor this fall.

Vijay Singh's practice and training regimens have long been the stuff of legend. They're the main reason for the Fijian being the most prolific PGA Tour player in his 40s of all time with 22 (of his career 34) victories, including a major at the 2004 PGA Championship. And now in his mid-50s, Singh is showing no signs of slowing down.

Those poor tires. Seriously, is Vijay training for the 2019 season or auditioning for Rocky VII? Kinda makes my “I'm going to hit the treadmill for 20 minutes three times a week” New Year's resolution pretty lame by comparison.
