I’ve played golf with three U.S presidents. — Lee Trevino

I never played much golf as a kid. I caddied quite a bit but never got serious into golf until about age 15. — Lee Trevino

I played the tour in 1967 and told jokes and nobody laughed. Then I won the Open the next year, told the same jokes, and everybody laughed like hell. — Lee Trevino

The most interesting guy I’ve ever played with was King Hassan of Morocco. I went over there on a trip in the early 1970s, and the King and I played five holes. I’ve never been that nervous in my life. — Lee Trevino

When it comes to the game of life, I figure I’ve played the whole course. — Lee Trevino

Golf isn’t just my business, it’s my hobby. — Lee Trevino

There are two things you can do with your head down–play golf and pray. — Lee Trevino

I thought Manual Labor was a Mexican golf pro. — Lee Trevino

If it wasn’t for golf, I don’t know what I’d be doing. If my IQ had been two points lower, I’d have been a plant somewhere. — Lee Trevino

There is no such thing as natural touch. Touch is something you create by hitting millions of golf balls. — Lee Trevino

I adore the game of golf. I won’t ever retire. — Lee Trevino

Golf is a game invented by the same people who think music comes out of a bagpipe. — Lee Trevino

I’m not saying my golf game went bad, but if I grew tomatoes, they’d come up sliced. — Lee Trevino

One of the nice things about the Senior Tour is that we can take a cart and cooler. If your game is not going well, you can always have a picnic. — Lee Trevino

You can make a lot of money in this game. Just ask my ex–wives. Both of them are so rich that neither of their husbands work. — Lee Trevino

Nobody but you and your caddie care what you do out there, and if your caddie is betting against you, he doesn’t care, either. — Lee Trevino

No one who ever had lessons would have a swing like mine. — Lee Trevino

I still swing the way I used to, but when I look up the ball is going in a different direction. — Lee Trevino

My swing is so bad I look like a caveman killing his lunch. — Lee Trevino

Yes, I think I have the best swing on the Tour. Why have scores comedown in the last ten years? Partly because they are imitating me. — Lee Trevino

My point is, there’s no sense trying to squeeze something out of your swing if you can let your clubs do the shotmaking for you. — Lee Trevino

Jack Nicklaus liked to curve the ball by opening or closing the clubface at address. I never felt I was good enough to do it his way. I didn’t like changing my swing path, either, which some guys do. — Lee Trevino

You can talk to a fade but a hook won’t listen. — Lee Trevino

You’re Mexican until you make money and then you’re Spanish. — Lee Trevino

Winning isn’t everything. It’s the money you make doing it that’s everything. — Lee Trevino

Putts get real difficult the day they hand out the money. — Lee Trevino

I’m going to win so much money this year, my caddie will make the top twenty money winner’s list. — Lee Trevino

When you’re poor, you know nothing about the future, you know nothing about the world, nothing that goes on outside 300 yards around you. — Lee Trevino

I’m a golfaholic. And all the counseling in the world wouldn’t help me. — Lee Trevino

Two things that are not long for this world: dogs that chase cars and professional golfers who putt for pars. — Lee Trevino

I’ve traveled the world and been about everywhere you can imagine. There’s not anything I’m scared of except my wife. — Lee Trevino

There are two things that won’t last long in this world, and that’s dogs chasing cars and pros putting for pars. — Lee Trevino

Caddies are a breed of their own. If you shoot 66, they say, ‘Man, we shot 66!’ But go out and shoot 77, and they say ‘Hell, he shot 77! — Lee Trevino

I’ve seen enough crazy shots to know they happen in the best of families. — Lee Trevino

If Jack Nicklaus had to play my tee shots, he couldn’t break 80. He’d be a pharmacist with a string of drugstores in Ohio. — Lee Trevino

They say I’m famous for my chip shots. Sure, when I hit ’em right, they land just so, like a butterfly with sore feet. — Lee Trevino

Chi Chi Rodriguez had as good a pair of hands as anybody I ever saw, and more shots than you can imagine. But Chi Chi had a habit of turning simple shots into difficult ones. — Lee Trevino

I love watching Anthony Kim play, but I’m not a fan of the way he grips down a good two inches on his full–swing shots. Choking down lightens the club’s swingweight and effectively makes the shaft stiffer. — Lee Trevino

Arnie has more people watching him park the car than we do out on the course. — Lee Trevino

Columbus went around the world in 1492. That isn’t a lot of strokes when you consider the course. — Lee Trevino

I’m actually a very quiet person off the golf course. I talk 150 miles per hour when I’m at the course, but when in private I very seldom ever open my mouth. — Lee Trevino

If you are caught on a golf course during a storm and are afraid of lightning, hold up a 1–iron. Not even God can hit a 1–iron. — Lee Trevino
