Trevino captures second U.S. Open title at Merion
Lee Trevino, 31, beat Jack Nicklaus by three strokes at Merion to win his second U.S. Open. Trevino birded early rounds, held a two shot lead after sand woes by Nicklaus, and earned $30,000 and a place atop the money list with $165,000. He embraced a new mindset after Hagen’s remark and plans to play in Cleveland and other PGA events this season. Nicklaus, disappointed, credits his two sand errors and will skip to the British Open next.
