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

The biggest underdog story from the PGA Championship is firmly 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 only played in 24 PGA Tour events and hadn't made a cut since the Sanderson Farms Championship in November 2014.
