Michael Block's Betting Odds Revealed for Charles Schwab Challenge After Exemption

The biggest underdog story from the PGA Championship is a long shot for the Charles Schwab Challenge, which tees off Thursday at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas.

DraftKings Sportsbook listed Michael Block at +50000 to win the event, which is tied for the fourth-longest odds in the field. He's also +9000 to finish in the top five, +3500 to earn a top-10 place and +150 to make the cut.

Block was almost entirely unknown to golf fans before the PGA Championship got underway. A club pro at Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club in Mission Viejo, California, he had played in only 24 PGA Tour events and hadn't made a cut since the Sanderson Farms Championship in November 2014.

The 46-year-old proceeded to tie for 15th at the PGA Championship at Oak Hill Country Club. His run included a hole-in-one on the 15th hole in the final round.

Block was brought to tears when discussing the significance of competing in the PGA Championship and exceeding exepctations.

"I'm living a dream. I'm making sure that I enjoy this moment. I've learned that after my 46 years of life, it's not going to get better than this. There's no way."

The Charles Schwab Challenge granted him a sponsor exemption, so his moment in the spotlight will extend for another week.

No matter where he finishes in Fort Worth, Block will have plenty of fans rooting him on.
