1 COMMENT

  1. Lee Trevino is my favorite professional golfer of all time. I actually got to watch him play twice: once in Phoenix at at Open tournament, and once in Great Falls, MT. My older sister and her family lived in Great Falls at the time and Helen and I went to one afternoon of a tournament. We actually walked and spoke with Lee between two holes. We were right next to the river and he asked what river it was. Helen told him it was the Missouri but he couldn’t understand how the Missouri could be in Montana. I believe this was sometime in the 1970s. I am now 88 and memory is not all that sharp. I like the fact that Lee is also a philanthropist. Blessings on him and his family.
