Campbell surprised to win classic

CHAD CAMPBELL admitted that he did not believe his final round of 71 would be good enough to win the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic in California.

The 31-year-old American claimed his first US Tour victory for 22 months by three shots from compatriot Scott Verplank and Sweden's Jesper Parnevik.

Campbell, who finished on 25 under par at 335, moves up to fourth in the US Ryder Cup standings as a result.
