- Club professional revels in ‘dream’ top-15 result at Oak Hill
- Block heads to Charles Schwab Challenge and Canadian Open
Michael Block has a sneaking suspicion his life has changed forever thanks to his sensational performance in the US PGA Championship.
The club professional enjoyed a barely believable week at Oak Hill, making the cut in a major for the first time, playing with Justin Rose in the third round and then firing a hole-in-one on Sunday while playing with four-time major winner Rory McIlroy. The 46-year-old’s display captured the imagination of spectators and his tie for 15th place secured a spot in next year’s US PGA at Valhalla, followed soon after by invites for this week’s Charles Schwab Challenge on the PGA Tour and June’s Canadian Open.
