Quite possibly the two best ball-strikers ever. Very cool to see them side by side

For that era I would agree but not the best ever…
This is some iconic lost footage. Great upload 👏🏻⛳️

Many thanks!
that's a rare one.
Ben probably thinking what's the caddy doing out here.
Never seen this one! Thanks for sharing! I wonder if Lee has seen this?

Good question and thank you? Did you know that in the final round of the 72 US Open at PB, which Jack Nicklaus won, Trevino and Jack were paired together? Palmer trailed Jack by one shot when Arnie finished the 13th, but Palmer bogeyed the 14 and 15. Lee's poor performance on Sunday may have been caused by the pneumonia he had a few weeks earlier, but the weather was unfavorable and the wind was blowing all day. I'll soon upload some video from the competition.
Boy, they both sure do “get left” before they come down, don’t they?
Incredible side-by-side footage..great find...I think the '66 Open was Trevino's first Open and he played the final round with Dave Hill. According to what I've read, one of Hill's friends approached him during the round and asked him "who's the Italian guy you're playing with...(LOL)"...Dave replied "He's not Italian, he's Mexican and he sure can play!"

Fuzzy? LMAO
Which is which? That doesn’t look like Lee Trevino’s swing to me.

Hogan is most closest. Ben is blasting a driver, Lee is hitting an iron, and Trevino is behind. You can see Lee's head is virtually out of sight at impact if you stop the video. This is an example of how much side bend Lee had in his earlier playing days.
