Dunlap is now known as the only guy to win the Junior am, the am, and a pga event as an am. He did those things. The story is him. He moved the needle.
I watch a lot of golf - usually beginning in Feb once football is over. I knew who Dunlap was before this event.
I tuned in Sunday because he was potentially the first amateur to win a tournament since Phil. I would have tuned in for any amateur in that situation. It wasn’t about Dunlap.

You tuned in to see an Am player win a pga event. That am was Dunlap.
When people tune in to certain other events, they are watching to see if a player can somehow replicate his past performance and get closer to Jack. That is Tiger.
Just because pride wants to spin it as if a player’s draw isn’t all about his story doesn’t make it the case. Thats with every player and every event. They want to see what X player can do. Can he make history. It could be anyone. Tiger does have the most draw. His history/story is the most interesting of all and has been for a long time.
It doesn’t mean other players are worthless either. Sure, he’s worth the most but it doesn’t mean others have zero value.
