Is Michael Block married? Because Paige Spiranac and a whole slew of other female golf fans absolutely love him.
Actually, he is. Sorry, ladies. His wife Val Block was there with him at the PGA Championship and she too was amazed by his performance.
“What can I say?” Val said after his hole-in-one. “I was seeing the ball go up, and it was right and then straight in the hole. My entire body just was shaking, and my hair was shaking. Wow. Unreal. Unreal.”
She added that she “couldn’t even dream of something like this,” talking about the tournament. “I’m so proud of him. Wow. Wow.”
“Who is your new favorite player and why is it Michael Block?” Paige Spiranac asked on Twitter on Monday.
“Historically, the PGA Championship is everyone’s least favorite major, but this year we were all reminded of what sets the PGA Championship apart thanks to one very special man,” Paige began her latest video.
“And we already know who I’m talking about. PGA teaching pro Michael Block captured the hearts of millions of people with his humble attitude and stellar play.
“He had so many memorable moments. From his hole-in-one to being shocked that he was playing with Rory McIlroy in the final round to tearing up in his post-round press conference, he is getting sponsor invites left and right. Michael Block is the man of the moment.
“PGA Championship was truly one for the books this year,” Paige continued, “with Brooks Koepka getting his fifth major win and seeing Michael Block’s life just change forever.”
She then asked her viewers (with her trademark jiggle that was mentioned in about every other comment that followed) what their favorite moment from the PGA Championship was.

“The ace was great but the up and down on 18 for me because he could have mailed it in after the wayward approach!!” another viewer commented.
The post tourney interview made my top moment and had me reaching for a tissue 🥰

“Michael’s reaction to his ACE! Neither he nor his caddie could see it go in,” someone else tweeted. “He had to ask Rory. He did more for golf in four days than the current league feud.”
His attitude throughout the week. Enjoying every moment. Not in his head at all, even after the ace. Now let’s see how he shows up Thursday at Colonial
