Colm Campbell keeps nerve to hold off Jack Hume challenge
Two clear of Hume overnight and six ahead of him with 10 holes to go, the 29-year old international saw his lead whittled back to just one shot with two holes to go when the Naas man birdied the ninth, 13th, 14th and 16th in the sparkling sunshine at Royal Dublin.
Campbell, the 2014 East of Ireland champion, looked to have his second major title in the bag when he holed a 25 footer for birdie at the 17th to go two ahead on 16 under par and then left himself a 30 footer for birdie at the last with Hume missing the green.
