GOLF Rory Mcllroy believes the best golf of his career is yet to come after he celebrated St Patrick's Day by defeating JJ Spaun in a play-off to win a second Players Championship title.
-
Mcllroy covered the three extra holes in one over par, but that was comfortably enough to beat Spaun in a somewhat anticlimactic finish at TPC Sawgrass, Florida.
A two-putt birdie on the par-five 16th gave Mcllroy a one-shot advantage after Spaun could only make par after finding rough off the tee and then a bunker.
