The 2012 Deutsche Bank Championship is Rory McIlroy's to lose after 12 holes on Monday, as he is now 21-under and three strokes ahead of Louis Oosthuizen. McIlroy birdied the 12th hole for sixth under-par hole on Round 4. Oosthuizen, who began the day in the lead at 19-under, double-bogeyed the fifth hole after making a birdie on the fourth and since then has made seven straight pars.
Tiger Woods stands at 17-under through 13 holes, but he'll need a big finish to come back and win this tournament. No other golfers are even close to the top three right now. Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson are closest at 13-under, but the latter is closing in on his final few holes and the former is on his final hole.
Should he win this tournament, McIlroy will move into the lead for the FedExCup title.

Rory McIlroy has taken the lead at the 2012 Deutsche Bank Championship on Monday afternoon. He birdied holes 2-4 before making bogey on the fifth. However, he bounced back with a birdie on the sixth hole to erase that mistake and followed with another birdie on the eighth hole. He is now sitting at 20-under.
That score was what Louis Oosthuizen started the day with, but through eight holes he is at 18-under. He double-bogeyed the fifth hole after making birdie on the fourth. Tiger Woods is certainly in contention, as he is 3-under for the final round and 16-under overall. His birdies came on holes 4, 6 and 7 while he has yet to make a bogey.
For the moment, it looks like a three-way race to the top of the leaderboard with no other golfer closer than 13-under.

The 2012 Deutsche Bank Championship is underway in Boston and after the first round of play, Tiger Woods and Jeff Overton find themselves atop the leaderboard at 7-under par.
Woods came out on fire as he birdied the first four holes on the front nine and finished with eight birdies and just one bogey on his first 18 holes. Overton, however, didn't get off to the same hot start on the front nine as he connected on just two birdies. But he finished the back nine strong with six birdies, five of them consecutively between the 12th and 16th holes.
But neither golfer has a comfortable lead as several golfers are still playing the course and could take the lead once round one is complete.
Ryan Moore and South Korea's Seung-Yul Noh are currently at 6-under par through 14 holes, while Chris Kirk is currently at 5-under par through 10 holes.

Unlike most golf tournaments, the Deutsche Bank Championship begins on a Friday and ends on a Monday. TPC Boston in Norton, Mass., continues to play host to this Labor Day weekend tournament. Former Colorado State Ram Martin Laird is looking to rebound from his terrible finish at Bethpage-Black in the 2012 Barclays last weekend. He finished 8-over for the tournament after carding 6-overs on Saturday and Sunday.
Martin is currently ranked 40th in the FedExCup standings, making him a longshot to win the end-of-the-year title. Still a little luck here and there and some good swings to finish highly in the tournament, Laird could move himself up numerous spots on the leaderboard.
