Stenson wins in Boston

Henrik Stenson secured his first PGA Tour title with a two-shot victory in the Deutsche Bank Championship in Boston.

Sergio Garcia started the day two shots ahead of the Swede but a final round of 73 forced the Spaniard to settle for a tie for fourth position.

Stenson carded a round of 66, beginning his charge up the leaderboard with four birdies in five holes on the front nine.

The 37-year-old chipped in on the 17th to build a two-shot lead before three-putting for par on the final hole to finish ahead of Steve Stricker.

Stenson's victory takes him above Tiger Woods in the FedEx Cup playoff standings with two events remaining.
