Block, who shot to fame at the 2023 PGA Championship at Oak Hill, was late to his tee time for the final round which he later explained on social media as “only a couple of seconds” because he was taking pictures with volunteers. He took ownership in the same Instagram post, saying, “first time in my career and completely my fault.” “Yes, I was a couple of seconds late to my tee time today, got caught up taking pictures for volunteers. First time in my career and completely my fault,” he wrote on social media.

After the two-stroke penalty for being late, he shot an opening nine of 43. After a bogey on 12, a report by Monday Q suggested Block walked in without telling his playing partners and had reportedly been upset with how the course was set up.

So hes late for tee time but blames it on people wanting to take pictures with him because he is such a big deal

Then quits mid round because he is going to miss the cut but blames his bad play on the course conditions

Golf will be in a much better place when this dude has used up all his exemptions and is no longer playing big time tournament golf.

He was so likable in that tournament too. People don't know how to be humble I guess

Being late for your tee time then walking off the course mid-round like a child and not speaking to anyone as a sponsors exemption is quite the decision.

Hopefully his 15 minutes is finally up. He's become so unlikeable since his cinderella run at the PGA

He also acted like a child because he lost in a YGT event of all things. Same behavior. Played poorly, left without saying goodbye to anyone. Then got pissed because YGT posted audio of him freaking out about losing. I'm not sure there is anyone in golf who has a more over-inflated sense of self-worth than him.

He lost me as soon as he said he’d be one of the best in the world if he hit it as far as Rory

His 15 minutes of fame is done. His whining about the YGT when everyone knew the deal going in just showed there were a lot of guys dying for the exposure who would have crawled there for the opportunity that would have been better choices.

Given his latest shenanigans I think they should replace him in their 2nd event which is supposed to be filmed i believe this week.

Arrogant to say the least.

I thought each team had a different alternate each event regardless

I think he played the Colonial shortly after those comments…and proceeded to finish dead last in shots gained around the greens. Dude is a joke, a very very good golfer, but nowhere near a Tour Pro

Personally witnessed him ping pong across a green 2 times and watched him hit the saddest spinny 240-260 yard push drive off a tee.

Was embarrassed for him.

Sad because the PGA thing was really cool. All he had to do was shut up and just be a chill guy.
