2012 Deutsche Bank Championship: Rory McIlroy Takes Lead, Tiger Woods Still In Hunt

Stay connected for news and updates

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.
