Samford Golf Hosts A Day With Lee Trevino
June 10, 2008
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. --- Winner of 29 PGA Tour events, Lee Trevino was in Birmingham June 1-2, to help Samford Golf host "A Day with Lee Trevino and Samford Golf." "The Merry Mex" spoke at a kick-off dinner on Sunday evening, June 1, and hosted an hour-long clinic on Monday morning prior to a golf scramble at Shoal Creek. Trevino is the winner of 29 PGA Tour events, including two U.S. Opens (1968, 1971), two British Opens (1971, 1972) and two PGA Championships (1974, 1984). He is won of the very best to have ever played the game of golf. Trevino's final regular Tour win and major came at Shoal Creek when he bested rivals Gary Player and Lanny Wadkins in the 1984 PGA Championship. He joined the Champions Tour in 1989 and soon dominated it. He also amassed 29 Champions tour wins, including four majors. He now plays a very limited Champions Tour schedule. Shoal Creek is the unrivaled number one golf course in the state of Alabama, and it is a privilege for Samford University men's and women's golf team to host "A Day With Lee Trevino and Samford Golf" at this prestigious venue. Shoal Creek has hosted the 1984 and 1990 PGA Championship, the 1986 U.S. Amateur Championship, and in July, will host the U.S, Junior Amateur Championship.
