Dylan Dreyer acknowledged that she 'contributed nothing to the team' at 2024 Bottoms Up celebrity golf tournament

Dylan Drever, her husband Brian Fichera, and Craig Melvin's college friends won the 2024 Bottoms Up Invitational. The winners received a trophy and each player was awarded a signed guitar from the performing artists.

Talking about the event, Drever said (via NBC Universal):

"But I will say I was on a team with Brian, my husband and some friends of Craig's, like his college buddies.They're all really good at golf. I contributed nothing to the team, but I will take credit for being on the winning team."

She said that it was a really fun day and the team won guitars signed by musician friends of Craig, like Darius Rucker and Edwin McCain. She further said:

"Craig (Melvin) and Lindsay (Czarniak) put on such a good. I mean, it's a party, really. And they raised money for such an important cause."

The colorectal cancer event raises $1.1 million every year and has raised $3.3 million in three years. Melvin said (via News 12 Connecticut):

"We needed to do something to raise awareness, to get more folks screened, to raise money for research. When it became apparent that he wasn't going to survive, he asked me to make sure that after he was gone that we continue to raise awareness and so we have."

Michael Sapienza, CEO of the Colorectal Cancer Alliance has thanked Craig and Lindsay for spreading awareness and bringing in funds. Sapienza said that the funds would increase screening rates, patient care, and help in cancer research.
