(AP) The final four "Survivor: China" contestants kept their alliance intact all season long, but only self-proclaimed schemer Todd Herzog was able to win the CBS reality show's $1 million prize Sunday. Herzog, a 22-year-old flight attendant from Pleasant Grove, Utah, bested closest allies Courtney Yates, a 26-year-old waitress from New York, and Amanda Kimmel, a 23-year-old hiking guide from Los Angeles. "I wasn't the strongest. I wasn't the smartest," Herzog said during the finale. "But I was definitely the most strategic." Todd won the 15th edition of "Survivor" with four votes against Yates' two and Kimmel's one. None of the opposing Zhan Hu tribe members was able to penetrate their alliance with fourth-place finisher Denise Martin, a 40-year-old lunch lady from Douglas, Mass. Earlier in the season, the quartet turned on fellow original Fei Long tribe members Jean-Robert Bellande and James Clement, who possessed but didn't use either of the game's two Hidden Immunity Idols. © MMVII The Associated Press.
