Spaun and fired an eagle at the par-5 2nd as well as four birdies and two bogeys to close with a 68 and reach 12-under.<\/p>\n<p>McIlroy looked set to win, leading by three shots after a four hour delay due to inclement weather. However Spaun who had made two bogeys and a birdie on the front nine reversed it with a bogey and two birdies and caught up to McIlroy as darkness fell, setting up a playoff for Monday morning.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I felt like it got a little dark with a couple of holes to go,&#8221; said McIlroy. &#8220;I hit two great shots into 15. I didn&#8217;t convert. Hit a good putt. It looked like it was going to go left to right to me, and it didn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Then on 16, as well, same sort of thing, sort of struggled to read it. It was getting a little darker. But played the last couple of holes well. Made three good swings, didn&#8217;t quite get it up the tier on 18, but a good two-putt, and I feel like I had a chance to go home with the trophy tonight.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But I&#8217;ll get a good night&#8217;s sleep and reset and try to win it tomorrow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>McIlroy is seeking his 28th <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pgatour.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Tour<\/strong><\/a> win in his 261st start and would move to T20 on the PGA Tour all-time wins list (Leo Diegel, Paul Runyan) with a win on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>At 35 years old, the Northern Irishman would be the oldest winner of The Players since 2013 (Tiger Woods\/37 years, 4 months, 12 days).<\/p>\n<p>Spaun seeks his second PGA Tour win in his 228th career start (2022 Valero Texas Open). The World No. 57 would become the lowest-ranked player to win the Championship since Si Woo Kim (No. 75\/2017). This is the American&#8217;s third top-three finish in nine starts this season (T3\/<a href=\"https:\/\/golftoday.co.uk\/sony-open-in-hawaii-2025-r3-nick-taylor-wins-fifth-pga-tour-title-in-playoff\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Sony Open in Hawaii<\/strong><\/a>; T2\/<a href=\"https:\/\/golftoday.co.uk\/cognizant-classic-in-the-palm-beaches-2025-r4-joe-highsmith-wins-first-pga-tour-title\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches<\/strong><\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I just tried to just fight back,&#8221; said Spaun. &#8220;I kind of went with the odds. I had nothing to lose. Now I&#8217;m trying to catch Rory, and I can&#8217;t really control what he does, but I can control what I do, and I just started committing to my shots and my swing and trusting it more. Because it&#8217;s easy to kind of &#8212; now when I&#8217;m hunting, it&#8217;s easier to let it go. Whereas, starting the round I was a little tentative, a little scared and stuff.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The drive on 14 kind of gave me a little pep in my step because I didn&#8217;t drive it well on the front nine, so it was nice to see and feel a good tee shot that I was able to run with for the rest of the nine.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think it put me in a pretty comfortable spot to finish off the round.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Highlights | Round 4 | THE PLAYERS | 2025\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Jmk5fm-EyKk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>McIlroy and Spaun will play a three-hole aggregate playoff (Nos. 16, 17, 18) starting on Monday at 9 a.m.<\/p>\n<p>If the two players remain tied after three holes, the playoff will go back to No. 17 in sudden-death format, with the rotation being 17, 18, 16, 17, 18 until a champion is determined.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I guess it&#8217;s very much just a three-hole match play scenario,&#8221; said McIlroy. &#8220;That&#8217;s all it is.
