Singh wins again to take huge FedEx lead
Wasn’t the putter supposed to be the chink in Vijay Singh’s armor? Not Monday it wasn’t.
Singh rolled in five birdie putts on TPC of Boston’s back nine, including ones of 25 and 60 feet, to take charge and dominate the PGA TOUR Deutsche Bank Championship.
Singh finished with a stellar 63 and posted 22-under-par, five shots clear of Mike Weir, who shot even-par on the back nine after double-bogeying the par-4 ninth to lose the lead.
Singh’s lead in the FedEx Cup points standings is now 12,225 over Sergio Garcia, Singh’s playing partner on Monday, going into this week’s BMW Championship. If Singh emerges from the event at Bellerive Country Club with at least at 12,500 lead, he will clinch the FedEx Cup title and the $10 million purse without having to step on the tee at The TOUR Championship in Atlanta.
Here is the points standing heading into the BMW Championship:
