Who came in second when Scott Verplank won as an amateur?

A year later, playing as an amateur at the Western Open on the PGA Tour, Verplank outlasted Jim Thorpe in a playoff.

Answer 2

Jim Thorpe

Verplank won on the second playoff hole.

Answer 3

Jim Thorpe is correct. Thorpe is a known hustler and the golfers all gave him the business for getting first place money whether he won or not.

Answer 4

I want to say Jim Thorpe in a play off ?
