THE SIDELINES : Trevino’s Daughter Wins, Too
Lee Trevino’s putting has given a big boost to his daughter’s driving.
Trevino capped another lucrative weekend on the Senior PGA Tour by rolling in a 15-foot birdie putt Sunday on the final hole of the Chrysler Cup to win a new LeBaron convertible.
The car went to the player with the lowest final round. Trevino tied Don Bies for the honor with a 3-under-par 69 and won the contest because he birdied No. 18, the tiebreaker hole.
Easy come, easy go. The hottest player in golf said he’ll give away the car.
“I’ve got all the Toyotas in the world,” said Trevino, who does commercials for the Japanese auto maker. “I’ve got a daughter, Lesley--23 years old, and she’s never asked me for a thing. I think my daughter needs this car real bad.”
