Big guns to miss out on Chrysler Classic

Not one of the world's top 20 is in the field for the US Tour's Bob Hope Chrysler Classic starting over three courses at La Quinta in California tomorrow.

The five-round pro-am event therefore presents the likes of Stewart Cink and Scott Verplank, the two highest-ranked players on view, with a golden opportunity to improve their chances of another Ryder Cup cap in September.
