About this Quote

Lee Trevino's quote speaks with the unique experience of playing golf with King Hassan of Morocco in the early 1970s. It is clear that Trevino was extremely anxious to be having fun with the King, which talks to the regard he had for him. It is likewise most likely that Trevino was daunted by the King's status and the truth that he was using foreign soil. The reality that they just played 5 holes suggests that the King was a gracious host, and that he wanted to offer Trevino an opportunity to experience the video game with him. The quote is a testament to the power of golf to bring individuals together, even if they originate from various backgrounds and have various levels of experience. It is a reminder that golf is a game that can be enjoyed by anyone, regardless of their social status.
