Michael Block’s fairytale week at the 2023 PGA Championship just got even more magical.
Block has been the story of the PGA Championship these last few days, as the 46-year-old PGA club pro and golf instructor entered the final day at Oak Hill tied for eighth and even at par. As a result, Block was paired with Rory McIlroy — yes, that Rory McIlroy! — for the final round of PGA Championship action.
And on No. 15, Block sunk a gorgeous hole-in-one to the absolute delight of the fans at Oak Hill. The best part? Block’s incredulous reaction, as he could not believe he sunk an ace. So much so that he asked McIlroy himself to confirm his hole-in-one!
MICHAEL BLOCK!
