Trevino and Nicklaus T angle for Westchester Classic win
The $250,000 Westchester Classic at Westchester Country Club opens with Lee Trevino aiming to capitalize on a strong season and a favorable course setup while Jack Nicklaus notes the layout suits his strategic approach. Trevino, chasing the year’s top money total, seeks a strong start after a late tee time last year. Nicklaus, a former winner on the same course, emphasizes accuracy over power. Arnold Palmer hints at a possible late surge after a long layoff with a 68 in the Pro-Am, while Jerry Heard led with a 66.
