Drywall – Are 4 toggle bolts enough to hold up a 32in TV

drywall-anchortelevision

My studs are 16 inches apart, but the stud is exactly centered on where I want my TV on the wall. The horizontal bars for my wall mount are 25 inches long (not long enough to reach the next studs to the left and right). So I am thinking I would need to use toggle bolts. Will toggle bolts be enough to hold the TV on the wall?

My TV is a Sony Bravia KDL32BX420
Weight: 20lbs

Mount: Cheetah Mounts APTMM2B

Use toggles, but also put at least one good fastener into the stud. (Even if you have to drill a new hole/holes in the mount.)
