Nick Dunlap, a talented young golfer, made headlines after winning the PGA Tour's American Express tournament as an amateur, earning $1.5 million yet forfeiting it due to his amateur status. This impressive achievement positioned him as the tour's second youngest champion in 90 years and the first amateur winner since Phil Mickelson. Though he did not grasp the value of the money at the time, he cherishes the trophy over the financial gain. Dunlap aims to make a significant mark at the 2025 Masters, showcasing his competitive spirit fostered by his family background.
"At the time, I don't think I really knew what $1.5 million was... Ultimately, I got what I wanted in the end: a trophy."
"I just love competing; I miss it when I'm at home. I miss being in the hunt and having that feeling of being nervous."
