Nick Dunlap is probably the hottest topic in the entire golfing fraternity. He became the first amateur golfer in 33 years since Phil Mickelson to win any PGA Tour. He won the American Express 2024. However, because he was an amateur, he could not get his hands on the $1,512,000 and the entire amount went to the solo runner up Christiaan Bezuidenhout.
At La Quinta, the 20-year-old American amateur was accompanied by someone really special. It was his girlfriend, Isabella Ellis. Although there is not much information regarding when the two started dating each other. However, earlier in September 2023, shared a picture with the amateur golfer on Instagram.
