When Nathan Smith edged collegians Nathan Sutherland (Miami,
Ohio) and John Popeck (Maryland) at Allegheny to win the
West Penn Amateur, the Brookville native reached two more
benchmarks. He joins a group of nine golfers who have won
three or more Amateurs, and a group of six who have won
three
Amateurs in a row. The six players on both lists include
three USGA champions, Arnold Palmer, W.C. Fownes, and Smith,
plus three other players who dominated their eras--Sean
Knapp, Bob Reilly, and John Birmingham.
