British golfer Tommy Fleetwood finished 12th at the British Open, but the tournament sent his prize money to a different Tommy Fleetwood from Florida:
"Fleetwood, the English golfer who finished 12th at Carnoustie last month, has since received his prize, but only after it appeared in the bank account of a Florida-based golf teacher of the same name.
The American was shocked to discover the deposit of £119,971 ($154,480) sitting above a $14 Walmart transaction when he checked his mobile banking."
