Which 2024 PGA Tour event did amateur Nick Dunlap win?

Amateur Nick Dunlap won the 2024 PGA Tour event The American Express.

Dunlap won in La Quinta, California, during his sophomore season at the University of Alabama. He finished at 29 under par and held off Christiaan Bezuidenhout by one stroke, sealing the victory with a par on the final hole.

The win was historic because Dunlap became the first amateur to win a PGA Tour event since Phil Mickelson in 1991. He was also the only amateur in the 156-player field. His third-round 60 created a three-shot lead and became the turning point of the tournament.

The American Express was formerly associated with names such as the Bob Hope Desert Classic and the CareerBuilder Challenge. Dunlap later turned professional and joined the PGA Tour, but his 2024 victory remains officially recorded as an amateur win.
