Lee Trevino is an enigmatic character in every sense, and he was a truly fabulous golfer in his prime as well.

Trevino chalked up 29 PGA Tour victories throughout his career, including an impressive six major championships.

The 86-year-old from Garland, Texas, is widely considered the best shot-shaper in the history of the game.

Trevino was most comfortable when aiming 40 left of the fairway and working it back into the short grass, and he never attempted to hit a straight shot.

The six-time major champion came from absolutely nothing and went on to establish himself as one of the true greats of the game.

However, who does Trevino look up to as the very best?

When speaking to SIRIUSXM PGA TOUR Radio, Trevino responded when asked who he believes to be the four greatest golfers to have ever graced the game.

“There’s always a top orange, and then there’s another orange almost touching it. And then there’s a circle of oranges.

“I think the top orange in my opinion is between 3 golfers.

“I think it’s Nicklaus, Snead, and Bobby Jones, and Tiger is touching them. Tiger’s got a hold of them a little bit.“

It’s hard to argue with Trevino’s selections there.

Jack Nicklaus won 73 PGA Tour tournaments including a record 18 major championships, while Sam Snead won 82 PGA Tour titles and seven majors.

Bobby Jones never turned professional, of course, but still managed to win four U.S. Opens and three Open Championships before retiring at the tender age of 28.

And finally, we come to Tiger Woods, who won 82 PGA Tour events (tied most of all time with Snead), including 15 majors.

It’s hard to pick between any of them, but the records of Nicklaus and Woods probably separate them from everyone else.

That said, it would have been incredibly interesting to see what Bobby Jones would have achieved, had he turned pro and played beyond the age of 28.
