But the 86-year-old legend made an even louder statement with an approach shot at the par-4 13th hole that <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/shorts\/HfA62NjHnBU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tracked into the hole for an eagle-2<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been digging for worms.

That was good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trevino has played every PNC since the event began in 1995 and he told NBC Sports and Golf Channel\u2019s Todd Lewis following a final-round 62 that his passion for the game has never been greater.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe reason I do this and the reason that I promote it and I play it like I do now is because the Lord, for some reason, gave me a tremendous amount of talent, and I\u2019m going to meet him pretty soon and I damn sure don\u2019t want him to be disappointed, because you know why? If he\u2019s disappointed, I\u2019m probably going to have to caddie for [Arnold Palmer],\u201d Trevino said with a laugh. \u201cHe\u2019s going to have to put me on Arnie\u2019s bag, yeah.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In his 26 starts at the PNC, Trevino has never won but he has five top-10 finishes, including a tie for third in 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ORLANDO, Fla. \u2013 The only player to participate in every PNC Championship proved, again, what the family team&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":463139,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[1430,62,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-463138","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-golf","8":"tag-golf","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-united-states","11":"tag-unitedstates","12":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115760089194604648","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/463138","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=463138"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/463138\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/463139"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=463138"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=463138"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=463138"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
