Charley Hoffman made 11 birdies, and that was more than enough to win the Deutsche Bank Championship. Hoffman ran off four straight birdies early to make up a four-shot deficit, and he kept right on going Monday on the TPC Boston. He closed with a 9-under 62 to win the second playoff event and go to No. 2 in the FedEx Cup standings. He finished at 22-under 262, while Australians Jason Day (71) and Geoff Ogilvy (66) and Briton Luke Donald (69) tied for second at 17-under. He won for the first time in three years, although it might have been too late to get one of the Ryder Cup picks. US captain Corey Pavin will announce his selections Tuesday. Tiger Woods shot 68 and tied for 11th. It was enough to keep the No. 1 ranking when Phil Mickelson again blew a good chance to replace him. Mickelson made two double bogeys on the back nine and wound up with a 76. Schulz wins First Tee Open Ted Schulz won the First Tee Open Sunday for his first Champions Tour title, holing a 12-foot birdie putt on the 17th hole at Pebble Beach en route to a 2-under 70 and a one-stroke victory over Tom Pernice Jr. The 50-year-old Schulz – in the field on conditional status in his 12th start on the 50-and-over tour – finished at 14-under 202. It was his first victory since winning the 1991 Nissan Open for the second of his two PGA Tour titles. Schulz, who quit the PGA Tour in 2000 and is the director of golf at the University of Louisville, earned $315,000, the biggest payday of his career and nearly twice what he earned for his Nissan Open title. Mark Calcavecchia and Tom Kite closed with 69s to tie for third at 12-under. Fred Couples (68) followed at 11-under. “I'm getting in more tournaments than I thought I would,” Schulz said. “My game is getting better. I really haven't played much tournament golf and I haven't putted well in the past few weeks, but I putted well the past couple of days.”
