His unbelievable Ace on the 15th hole in Round 4 was the cherry on top of the golfer's incredible campaign. The Club Pro of the PGA of America did not stop until finally finishing at the T15 rank on the leaderboard.Block has notably received a sponsor's exemption for this week's Charles Schwab Challenge. He has also been invited to play at the 2023 RBC Canadian Open, where he will hope to impress once again.
