Irish golfer Padraig Harrington shot 68 and tied for fourth with Masters champion Angel Cabrera and Dustin Johnson at the Deutsche Bank Championship in Boston on Monday.

Though Harrington recovered from two poor drives that cost him three penalty strokes and birdied the final two holes, but it was not enough to take the title after a closing round of three-under-par 68 left him on 15-under.

Steve Stricker birdied the 18th to claim the title and top spot in the FedEx Cup play-off standings from Tiger Woods.

Although Harrington missed out on the title, the Dubliner moves into the top 20 of the FedEx Cup with two events still to come.
