NEW SHAFTS FOR SINGH: Vijay Singh is experimenting with new iron shafts. Bridgestone was the first event where he played with the new Scandium shafts.

"They're better than I thought," Singh said. "They're a little hard to get adjusted to. But they're good. I like them."

Singh posted four over-par rounds to finish T56 at 15-over 295.

Singh said that he experiences less vibration - and, therefore, less strain -- in his elbows when he hits the new shafts. He's suffered from an ongoing elbow injury, so the new shafts help keep that from flaring up.

"My shots (were) bent on the hosel so I was kind of concerned about that," he said. "I started using a remake of my hump shafts and amazingly they had a big dent in every one of my irons last week. They took them out this week and put in new ones. And this Scandium guy came along and said 'Why don't you try this shaft?' And I said, 'Well, they feel OK.'"

Singh said that he was hitting his irons well with the new shafts and will likely use them in this week's PGA Championship.
