The two were tied as late as the 15th tee; Green continued making pars, while Trevino bogeyed 15 and 17. Trevino admitted that the $50 heavy putter which helped him win in 1984 on wetter, softer greens in Alabama hurt him on the drier, faster greens in Colorado, especially on Sunday.https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=UYhQAAAAIBAJ&sjid=ahIEAAAAIBAJ&pg=6994%2C3102945 Milwaukee Sentinel wire services Green outduels Trevino by 2 August 12, 1985 1, part 2 This was the fifth major championship at Cherry Hills, which hosted the PGA Championship in 1941 and the U.S. Open in 1938, 1960, and 1978.
