Ams may win skins money without losing amateur status. It's considered the same as winning ace pots, CTP or side games cash. See Distribution of Prizes in Competition Manual: 1.10B. The usage of skins (and other similar formats) is permitted at PDGA events but scores are not allowed to determine a player’s overall standing in the event and prizes are not credited towards a player’s winnings.
Pros entering Am divisions receive the same merch prizes as if they were an Am.
Trophy Only can be offered by the TD and means the player pays a lower entry fee but can't win cash or prizes based on their final score. It does not prevent them from winning CTP, side games or skins cash/merch.
