What is the back story here? With all the drama between Liv and PGA I haven’t been watching much golf.



Don't know the personal interest story but he's a PGA pro (as in a pro at a club) and each year a number of them are invited to play in the PGA tournament with the big boys. Virtually every one of these guys misses the cut and the few who do make it to the weekend finish near the bottom.

This baw tore it up all weekend and ended up finishing better than a ton of top guys including the world number 1.

Cinderella story type stuff.

They are not “invited” to play in the PGA Championship. They have to earn their entry by finishing in the top 20 over the course of a qualifying tournament. Or, as Block has done with the top 15 finish, earn an invitation next year through his finish in the actual PGA Chamionship.
