Birmingham's own Nick Dunlap makes HISTORY!
Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme celebrate a historic day in golf: 20-year-old Nick Dunlap, who is currently a sophomore at the University of Alabama, won the American Express as an amateur, the first time an amateur has won on Tour since Phil Mickelson in 1991.

SK and CH also discuss whether it's even a question if Nick will turn pro given all the immediate status that comes with a Tour win.
