Sunday was a very special day for club pro Michael Block, who notched a hole-in-one and finished T-15th at the PGA Championship.
After he finished his final round, Block was shown on TV embracing his wife Val in a tender moment.
Golf influencer Paige Spiranac wishes that moment would have had a little more to it and puts the onus on Block to have made it happen.
“I’m just saying, if I’m on camera and I’m going up to my man, and I’m going in for a hug, and I’m putting my head up, going for a kiss, and they just deny me a kiss in front of all these people on camera, I would be bringing that up later,” Spiranac said in the latest episode of her “Playing A Round” podcast. “Not only later that day, but every single day for the rest of our lives until we die. We’ll be laying next to each other on our deathbed and be like, ‘Remember that moment you didn’t kiss me on camera?’ That would be the last thing I would ever say.”
Block and his wife probably aren’t too torn up over the day as he ended up earning $290,000 for his finish and qualified for more tournaments.
