However, the California club pro now says that his comments were "totally misconstrued." MICHAEL BLOCK OFFERED $50,000 FOR CLUB USED ON HOLE-IN-ONEHis popularity soared and during a podcast interview the following week, Block said, "What I would shoot from where Rory hits, it would be stupid. The comment did not sit well with some of his new supporters, but in an interview with Golf Monthly this week, Block said the comments were misinterpreted. Rory is an absolute stud and at no point, in any shape or form, was I ever trying to say anything about Rory or the tour professionals." Block’s finish in May was the best for a club pro at the PGA Championship since Lonnie Nielsen finished in a tie for 11th in 1986 at Inverness Club.
