Michael Block, who played his final round with Rory McIlroy, may have over-reached with one comparison to the former No. 1 player in the world.
this week. “What I would shoot from where Rory hits would be stupid. I think I’d be one of the best players in the world.
“Hands down. If I had that stupid length, all day. My iron game, wedge game, around the greens, and my putting is world-class.” Despite his boasts, Block struggled in the opening round of the Charles Schwab Challenge on Thursday, firing an 11-over 81 — good for last place in the field.McIlroy, a former World No. 1, has 23 wins on the PGA Tour, including four major wins.
He finished the PGA Championship at 2-under and tied for seventh, three shots better than Block 1-over on the weekend.at Oak Hill East in Rochester, and Block was appreciative of his time spent with the McIlroy. “Rory was awesome. It is amazing. I am enjoying this moment,” Block said after the round. “I have learned this after 46 years of life. It is not going to get any better than this.”Block may have qualified for the next year’s PGA Championship, but his post-round thought might turn out to be right.
