This time, it’s worth something. No one ever can take away Nick Dunlap’s victory at The American Express in January, but he captured it as an amateur. It swung open too many doors to count – the first of which PGA TOUR membership that he accepted immediately – but he didn’t collect any FedExCup points and it was worth precisely zero dollars in official earnings.

FCSO Threatens Legal Action Against Danko for 'Misleading' Ad Implying Endorsement
Ed Danko, the current Vice Mayor of Palm Coast and a candidate for Flagler County Commission, received a cease-and-desist letter from the Flagler County Sheriff's Office's general counsel for a video ad in which an endorsement from Sheriff Rick Staly was interpreted as having been implied.
