NORTON -- Steve Stricker, Retief Goosen, and Sean O'Hair are tied for the lead after three rounds of the Deutsche Bank Championship at TPC Boston.

Goosen had a chance to take the solo lead on the par-5 18th, but he bunkered his approach and hit a poor shot out of the sand, settling for a two-putt par.

After two days playing with Tiger Woods (4 under, likely out of contention), Steve Stricker was paired with Jerry Kelly, a fellow Madison, Wis., native, and fired the low round of the day, a 6-under 65. Kelly was almost as impressive, shooting 67 to get into a tie for seventh.

Fast greens, tricky pin placements, and a slight breeze made for much tougher scoring; only 28 players broke par in Round 3.
