2024 American Express Final Payouts, Prize Money: Amateur Nick Dunlap Gets Historic Win
The PGA Tour returned to mainland U.S. this week for its annual stop in Southern California. This year's edition of the American Express featured an $8.4 million purse, with $1.512 million to the winner.
Amateur Nick Dunlap won the title, the first amateur to win a PGA Tour event since Phil Mickelson won the Northern Telecom Open in 1991. But there will be no money because he's an amateur.
Runner-up Christiaan Bezuidenhout takes the first-place cash, Kevin Yu, Xander Schauffele and Justin Thomas are paid for a three-way tie for second (even though they tied for third on the leaderboard, and so on.
Here are the final payouts for the 2024 American Express:
