Deutsche Bank Championship at TPC Boston, agreeably located about halfway between Boston and Providence. Last year the big story was free-spirited Charley
Hoffman, who came to event No. 2 in the PGA TOUR’s Playoffs for the FedExCup looking for his second career victory and, possibly, a shot at making the U.S. Ryder Cup team. Hoffman brought a healthy confidence to the course

in Norton, MA, in part owing to a vastly improved bunker game, which he described as being “borderline horrendous” in 2009 (he ended the season ranked 130th in Sand Saves) before he went to work with James Sieckmann, a short-game specialist who had helped several of Hoffman’s fellow pros.

NO. 13 WAS THE KEY FOR HOFFMAN Tied with England’s Luke Donald for the lead on No. 13, he faced a difficult, long-bunker shot with the ball below his feet. But while the shot might have terrified him in the past, Hoffman played it perfectly, holing it for a birdie and the solo lead—a lead he wouldn’t give up.

FedExCup standings behind Matt Kuchar, who had won The Barclays a week earlier. Hoffman’s improved bunker play was reflected in the
fact that he was ranked 70th in Sand Saves—and he gave much of the credit to Sieckmann.
