Campbell hopes to revisit past glory

Michael Campbell will try to put a nightmare season in America behind him when defends his title in the Smurfit European Open at The K Club tomorrow.

In 10 events on the US Tour the New Zealander has earned only one cheque for €25,932 – and that was purely for turning up at the Accenture world match play championship in California in February. He lost in the first round to Jeff Sluman.
