Rory McIlroy is the winner of the 2012 Deutsche Bank Championship after shooting 20-under for the tournament. McIlroy beat out runner-up Louis Oosthuizen by one stroke.
Oosthuizen was the leader heading into the final day, as he held a three-stroke lead over McIlroy and the rest of the field at the completion of Sunday's action. However, Oosthuizen was unable to find his groove on Monday, while McIlroy found himself at 4-under for the second consecutive day. After shooting a 65 for two straight days to begin the tournament, that was enough to catapult him to victory.
Tiger Woods played well on the final day after struggling to finish the last few tournaments. Woods' final-round 66 tied him with Phil Mickelson, Adam Scott and Kevin Stadler for the best score of the day. However, his inability to hang with the top of the leaderboard during the middle two days cost him a shot at the win. Still, by taking home $544,000 dollars for finishing in third place, Woods became the first player in the history of the PGA Tour to reach $100 million in career earnings.
Pontiac, Mich. native Tom Gillis finished the day at 1-under, which brought his score for the tournament down to 5-under. That was good enough for a tie for 26th place, and allowed Gillis to take home $54,444.

South African-born golfer Louis Oosthuizen stole the show on Sunday afternoon at the 2012 Deutsche Bank Championship, as the former British Open champ fired a third round score of 63 to take a three-stroke lead heading into Monday.
The 29-year-old Oosthuizen birdied an unprecedented eight of his first 10 holes to open the day with a flurry, and finished with an 8-under score of 63 to reach 19-under for the tournament. Oosthuizen's round of 63 tied Keegan Bradley for the single lowest of the afternoon, and tied a handful of other players for the second-best of the week behind Seung Yul-Noh's round of 62 on Friday.
Lurking behind Oosthuizen on the leaderboard is a familiar face in Rory McIlroy at 16-under par, while both Dustin Johnson and Tiger Woods each remain well within striking distance at 13-under. Woods could only muster one birdie on TPC Boston's three par-5's on Sunday, but managed to card his second consecutive round of 68 to stay in the hunt.

Bradley entered the day in 77th place at 2-over par, but now finds himself 52 spots higher in a tie for 15th. Bradley wasted little time moving under par, with an eagle on No. 2 and birdies on Nos. 4, 6 and 9 to post a front-nine score of -5. He then continued his torrid pace with four more birdies on the back nine, adding only one bogey to finish with an 8-under 63. No other player who has teed off already has shot better than -2.
