Michael Block flopped on his first round after making bold statements about Rory McIlroy on the back of his eye-catching performance at the PGA Championship.
Block shot to fame last weekend when he finished 15th at the Major to bag $288,333 (£232,000) in prize money. The 46-year-old American club professional hit a spectacular hole-in-one at the 151-yard 15th while playing alongside McIlroy in the final round at Rochester to cap a memorable weekend.
His overnight success story saw him given a sponsor's exemption to play in the Charles Schwab Challenge in Colonial. But, after the high of the PGA Championship, Block was brought straight back down to earth at the PGA Tour event.
