PGA Championship 2024: Michael Block makes quadruple bogey on second hole

By admin May21,2024

Michael Block surprised the golf world with his 2023 run at Oak Hill, tying for 15th to earn a return trip to the PGA Championship.

In August, the California club professional got a sneak peek at this year’s site, Valhalla Golf Club, and tied the course record with a 63.

His play Thursday in Louisville, Kentucky, wasn’t as pleasant — at least, not from the start. Block bogeyed the first hole and then made a quadruple-bogey 8 at the par-4 second.

As you can see from the graphic above, it was quite the struggle around the green for Block at No. 2. To his credit, he made birdie on the par-4 fourth and played his final 16 holes in even par.

Five over through two holes, Block shot 5-over 76 and is well outside the projected cut line.
