Nick Dunlap made history at The American Express by becoming the first amateur to win a PGA Tour event since Phil Mickelson in 1991.
The University of Alabama sophomore began the final round at La Quinta with a three-shot lead over Sam Burns. It ended up being much tighter, with Dunlap needing to hold his nerve to hole his six-foot putt on the 18th to avoid a playoff with Christiaan Bezuidenhout.
