Michael Block struggles on final hole, finishes T9 at Dick's Open

Michael Block's Champions Tour debut at the Dick's Open in Endicott, New York, concluded with a difficult final hole. After strong rounds of six-under 66 and 70, Block surged to a five-under 32 front nine on Sunday and made birdies at 14, 15, and 16, getting within one of the lead. However, a triple bogey on the final hole left him with a T9 finish at 13 under, five strokes behind winner Dicky Pride. Block expressed frustration over his finish but remains optimistic about his competitive potential, looking forward to next week's U.S. Senior Open after qualifying for the event.
