The Michael Block Cinderella story just keeps getting better.

The club pro has already had an improbable week, finding himself paired with Rory McIlroy in the PGA Championship’s final round. Then, with his magical four rounds winding down, Block stepped up to Oak Hill’s 151-yard, par-3 15th with a 7-iron — and that was the only swing he’d need on the hole. 

Just like his reaction on Saturday night when he found out he’d be playing with McIlroy on Sunday, Block was in disbelief that he just dunked a hole-in-one.

“No, way … Rory, did it go in?” Block said moments afterward. 

The ace moved the 46-year-old Californian to even par.  

A top-15 finish gets him into next year’s PGA Championship, while a top 10 will send him to June’s RBC Canadian Open. 

However, no matter how he fares on his final three holes, Block’s week will forever live in major championship lore.
