Golf is a sport that is enjoyed by numerous people globally. It is not played by golf professionals alone. Among the other sports stars who love swinging the club is Shaquille O’Neal. Recently, a video of him playing with a golf legend went viral on the internet.

Shaq is probably the most outstanding NBA player of all time. The former basketball player played his first four seasons with Orlando Magic but in 1996 moved to the Lakers. Furthermore, he won the championships in 2000, 2001, and 2003. The NBA legend had a basketball career spanning over 19 long and illustrious years.

On the other hand, Lee is a six-time major championship winner. He won the US Open, the Open Championship, and the PGA Championship. Trevino won all of these events twice in his career.

The PGA Tour of Champions Instagram page recently uploaded a video of Shaq hitting the golf ball alongside golf legend Lee Trevino. Shaquille is hitting his driver in the video, and Lee gives him a couple of tips for the same.

After Lee says this, Shaq takes a shot backswing and hits behind the ball. As a result, the ball goes into the water.  Moreover, Lee is heard saying, “Beauty. The rings, the rings. You see that?  He further goes on to whisper to the camera, “That’s where it went, 20. He hit it 22 feet.”
