José María Olazábal set the course record at Valhalla Golf Club in the 2000 PGA Championship with a 9-under 63 in his third round.

When Michael Block tied for 15th place at the 2023 PGA Championship at Oak Hill Golf Club this time last year, he captured the attention of the golf world. Michael Block is a club pro at Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club in Mission Viejo, California.
In addition to making the cut, he also had an incredible up-and-down on the eighteenth hole and hit a hole-in-one with Rory McIlroy as his partner in the final round on Sunday.
