In this paper, the support genus of all Legendrian right handed trefoil knots
and some other Legendrian knots is computed. We give examples of Legendrian
knots in the three-sphere with the standard contact structure which have
positive support genus with arbitrarily negative Thurston-Benniquin invariant.
This answers a question in Onaran.
