Michael Block Got Congratulatory Text from Michael Jordan After PGA Championship Run

After his impressive showing at the PGA Championship last weekend, Michael Block has garnered plenty of attention from fans and friends. But one message stood out from the rest, as it came from someone who has been in the public eye for far longer.

According to ESPN's Todd Archer, Block received a congratulatory message from Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan, who took notice of the golfer wearing Jordan-brand shoes as he walked the greens at Oak Hill Country Club.

"I'm a big Jordan guy my whole life. I was a little kid in Iowa saving 100 bucks for a pair of Jordans back in the day," Block said.
