Alright, alright, let’s talk about this fella, Trevino Lee, or somethin’ like that. Folks keep gabbin’ about him, so I figured I’d put in my two cents, you know? Don’t expect no fancy words from me, I just say it like I see it.
Who’s this Trevino Lee Anyway?
Now, from what I gather, this Trevino fella, he was some big shot golfer. Yeah, one of them fellas whacking little balls with a stick. Seems like he was pretty darn good at it too. People keep sayin’ he won a bunch of them golf tournaments. Big ones, they say. Majors, or somethin’. Guess that means he was a real hotshot back in the day.
Swinging That Stick, The Trevino Way
They say this Trevino guy, he had a special way of swingin’ that golf stick. Not like them other fellas, no sir. See, some folks, they lift that stick up too early, and then they whack the ball all wrong. Goes flyin’ off sideways, you know? But not Trevino. He had it figured out. Kept that stick low, I reckon, and whacked it straight and true. That’s what they tell me anyway. I ain’t never swung a golf stick in my life, too busy workin’ in the fields, you know?
- Keepin’ that stick low.
- Whackin’ it straight.
- Winnin’ them tournaments.
Roses and Rivals, A Funny Story
Now, here’s a funny story I heard. Seems like Trevino, he had this rival, another golfer fella. And Trevino, he didn’t want this rival competin’ too much, see? So what does he do? He sends him a whole mess of roses! Dozens and dozens of ’em! Why? Well, I guess this rival’s wife, she loved roses. And with all them roses around, the rival had to stay home and take care of ’em, instead of playin’ golf! Ain’t that somethin’? Smart fella, that Trevino.
From Mexico to the Golf Course
This Trevino, he wasn’t always a fancy golfer. No sir. He came from Mexico, you know? Didn’t even speak no English at first. Had to learn it when he moved to some place called El Paso. Imagine that! From not speakin’ the lingo to bein’ a big shot golfer. That’s quite a journey, I tell ya. Shows you can do anything if you put your mind to it, I guess.
Lightnin’ Strikes and Back Troubles
But life ain’t always easy, even for a fancy golfer. This Trevino fella, he got struck by lightnin’ one time! Can you believe it? Lightnin’! Right out of the sky. Hurt his arm and his back, they say. And then he had all sorts of trouble with his back later on. Had to have surgery, the poor fella. Couldn’t play golf as much after that. See, even the best of ’em have their troubles. Life ain’t fair, that’s for sure.
Making a Buck, Trevino’s Way
Now, bein’ good at golf, that ain’t just about whacking balls and winnin’ trophies. It’s about makin’ a livin’ too. And from what I hear, this Trevino fella, he made a good bit of money playin’ golf. Real good bit. Seems like he was smart with his money too, didn’t just throw it around. Good for him, I say. Work hard, play hard, that’s what I always say.
Golf Tips from the Man Himself?
Before he stopped playin’ so much, this Trevino guy, he used to give folks some tips on how to swing that golf stick. Just one little tip, I heard. About the full swing, whatever that means. Wish I could remember what it was, but my memory ain’t what it used to be. Too many years, too many things to remember, you know? But I’m sure it was a good tip. This Trevino, he knew what he was talkin’ about.
So, there you have it. My take on this Trevino Lee fella. A good golfer, a smart fella, and a fella who had his share of troubles too. Just like the rest of us, I reckon. Maybe not the lightnin’ part, but you know what I mean.
