Congratulations to Rory McIlroy on securing his second PLAYERS Championship title with a clutch playoff victory at TPC Sawgrass. McIlroy posted rounds of 67-68-73-66 to finish at 12-under-par, then outlasted his opponent in a three-hole aggregate playoff to claim his 28th career win.
The 35-year-old from Northern Ireland finished regulation at 12-under-par and tied for the lead after a four-under-par final round. He then outlasted his playoff opponent to claim his second win of the 2025 season and his second coveted PLAYERS Championship title at famed TPC Sawgrass. With this win, using a SuperStroke Zenergy Pistol Tour putter grip, McIlroy solidified the top spot in the season’s FedEx Cup Standings and No. 2 in the Official World Golf Rankings.
McIlroy putted consistently all week, draining 21 birdies and gaining 4.963 strokes on the field with his flatstick while averaging 1.68 putts per green in regulation. He also led the field in Strokes Gained: Total. For his efforts, he earned $4.5 Million and makes a very-early case for Player of the Year consideration.
“Rory McIlroy is playing golf at an ultra-elite level and it’s extraordinary to witness the standard he’s setting this season with the major championships coming into view,” said SuperStroke CEO Dean Dingman. “Rory’s putting with his SuperStroke Zenergy Pistol Tour putter grip looks commanding and natural, and his results are speaking for themselves. It feels like this is becoming one of the truly special seasons in his exceptional career.”
SuperStroke’s Zenergy Pistol Tour putter grip merges a pistol-style top section that helps golfers lock in their upper hand position with “No Taper Technology” to help golfers maintain even grip pressure and boost the consistency of their stroke.

Enhanced SPYNE® Technology – The new SPYNE® Technology has an improved, embossed ridge along the underside of the grip, engineered to make it easier to square the face at impact.
New Multi-Zone Texturing – Strategically placed texture in high-sensory areas designed to optimize feedback and comfort from the incredibly soft polyurethane outer layer.
No Taper Technology – Our patented No Taper minimizes grip pressure with an advanced parallel design that enables golfers to quiet their hands and add consistency to their stroke.
