Michael Block gets text from Michael Jordan after magical PGA Championship

'I was a little kid in Iowa saving 100 bucks for a pair of Jordans back in the day. Pretty darn cool, to say the least,' Block said.

Michael Block, the obscure club professional who stole the show at the PGA Championship, has received countless congratulatory messages since his remarkable achievement but admitted that one soared higher than the rest.

Block has so many messages that he has not even been able to scroll to the bottom of a seemingly never-ending feed but did reveal that one from earlier on Tuesday came from six-times NBA champion and avid golfer Michael Jordan.
