The weather the PGA Tour hoped to avoid in the final round of The Players Championship did not hold off, and now — just over halfway through Round 4 — play has been suspended.
Rory McIlroy, comfortably in the fairway at 12, held a one-shot lead when the horn went off at 1:15 p.m. ET due to lightning. Here is what the leaderboard looks likes:
