Lee Trevino's Playoff Triumph: 1971 U.S. Open Film

Спорт

Already a winner of the U.S. Open in 1968, Lee Trevino had victory in his sights once again three years later at Merion Golf Club. And once again, the legendary Jack Nicklaus was aiming to flip the script.

    Love the funky early 70s music they played for these highlights. That one hole that Nicklaus double boggarted made Jack look like a pedestrian, amazing.

    1970 british open -1978 british open Nicklaus began a consistent streak unmatched by any professional golfer before or since. In the majors Nicklaus finished in the top ten a remarkable 35 times out of 36

    Lee Trevino had a nerve wracking, playing style, that he used to great advantage. I cant just imagine him, talking Nicklaus' head off, and driving him up the wall. It's not old school gentlemanly, country club etiquette. That's mostly jive, anyway..They're all killer's, and Trevino's crazy, as a very intelligent fox.

    Lanny Wadkins tees off the first on day one with Charles Coody and Tony jacklin but then holes a long put on the way to an opening 69 with different clothes on and with two different players, nice one.

    Two duffs in a bunker - failed to get down in 2 with the next one - plus that duffed pitch on ten. Jack had 19 2nds in Majors - was this his biggest regret?

    I don't know what if anything, your referencing, but Nicklaus, didn't even beat himself, 8 out of 10 times. Lee Buck Trevino, did stare Nicklaus down at majors, on several occasions. The next year, at Pebble Beach, it was Nicklaus' turn. I believe that they played together as well.

    He's the only completely obnoxious person, that I've ever liked. That's freaking charisma, that you can't really explain. At least I can't.
