Woods erased Singh's lead early in equaling his career-low final round.
No Mountain Too High
Nothing can stop Tiger Woods these days. Not the winds at Hoylake, the field at Medinah or, as we found out Monday, a three-shot deficit entering the final round. Woods' 8-under 63 gave him a two-shot Deutsche Bank win, his fifth straight victory on Tour. Story

BOB HARIG'S 5 THINGS TO BANK ON
1. This is going to be a very long week for Tiger Woods, J.J. Henry and Vaughn Taylor. They made the trip to Ireland with the rest of the U.S. Ryder Cup team for two days of practice at the K Club, with the idea of returning in time for the Deutsche Bank Championship.


2. Even Woods has to run out of gas at some point. After winning at the PGA and the Bridgestone, then heading to Ireland and coming back from the Deutsche Bank, he has to be looking forward to some down time. Woods does have two top-10s at the event, but tied for 40th last year.


3. David Duval is running out of time to finish among the top 125 and retain his PGA Tour card, but the Deutsche Bank is where he posted his best finish of the last two years, a tie for 13th. Duval is 159th on the money list with $303,025.


4. This is a big week on the European Tour, which returns to Europe for the BMW International Open in Germany. Not only is this a prestigious event, but it is the final qualifying event for the European Ryder Cup team. Captain Ian Woosnam will make his two at-large selections on Sunday night. Among the names to be considered are Jose Maria Olazabal, Ian Poulter, Lee Westwood, Padraig Harrington and Paul McGinley.


5. Annika Sorenstam returns to the LPGA Tour at the State Farm Classic in Springfield, Ill., and finds herself looking up at Lorena Ochoa, who moved back to the top of the money list after her victory Sunday. Sorenstam needs to make a push if she is win her sixth consecutive money title.

Got a question? Ask Bob Harig!
FANTASY FOCUS
Woods and the rest of the U.S. Ryder Cup team jetted to Ireland at the start of the week for a tuneup -- I'm staying away from picking anyone on that jet. Actually, the guy I like most is Carl Pettersson, who probably needs a big week to have any chance of making the European squad.
