THE BATTALION
Lee Trevino says he’s not a golf hustler
Intramural department announces
all-star teams in three classes
By WILL GRIMSLEY
AP Special Correspondent
NEW YORK OP)—You can
call Lee Trevino almost anything
but smile when you call him a
“golf hustler.”
“I’m no golf hustler,” the ebul
lient Mexican-American insisted
Tuesday after reeciving a trophy
as pro golf’s Player of the Year.
“I’m afraid some of you fellows
use that term a little loosely in
my case.
“A hustler is a golfer who has
a four handicap and tells every
body he’s a 10. He’s out to hus
tle somebody else out of some
dough. It’s a form of cheating.
I never had a handicap and I
don’t hustle.” *
The sharp response was trig
gered when one of the newsmen,
attending an impromptu press
conference, asked Trevino how
much money he was able to make
as a “golf hustler.”
“I never had more than two
bucks in my pocket at any time,”
Trevino replied. “My take-home
pay was $71.50 a week. I played
a dollar Nassau with a priest.
Everybody gambled a little bit.
“We played two-bit skins and
the most any guy could win was
$5.50. That’s not hustling, man,
that’s scratching.”
The copper-skinned pro from
El Paso, Tex., described how he
had inherited the label of “hus
tler” before he joined the pro
tour in 1967 to become one of
golf’s biggest stars.
“I worked at a driving range
in the daytime and a pitch’n’putt
course at night,” he related. “I
played golf from morning until
night and used every gimmick
in the book to get a bet. I played
one-handed, on my knees and
with one club.”
What about the story of a Dr.
Pepper bottle?
“It’s true,” Trevino said.
“There’s not much to do around
El Paso. So I wrapped this
quart-sized Dr. Pepper bottle
and practiced hitting balls out
the door. I got pretty good with
it.”
In the end, he could play the
nine holes of the pitch’n’putt
course with the bottle in 30
strokes. It kept him in hambur
ger and beer money.
Winner of $231,000 on the tour
this year, capturing the U.S.,
British and Canadian Opens in
the space of four weeks, Tre
vino was apologetic about re
ceiving the pro honor.
All-star teams have been se
lected in basketball in three
