Rory McIlroy and J.J. Spaun wound up tied after a four-hour rain delay Sunday at the Players Championship and have to return Monday for a playoff to decide who wins the richest tournament in golf.

After two early wins in signature events, McIlroy's game is in a great place with the Masters and the rest of the majors in the not-too-distant future.

The top-seeded Los Angeles Golf Club gets the playoff started Monday against New York Golf Club.
