Golf has taken Brian Campbell for a ride over the last decade.
The 31-year-old was a top amateur at the University of Illinois a decade ago. He turned pro in 2015 and quickly raced through the Korn Ferry Tour to earn his PGA Tour card for the 2016-17 season. But professional golf punched Campbell in the mouth. He finished 180th in the FedEx Cup standings in 2017 and lost his card. Campbell has been grinding away on the Korn Ferry Tour for years.
He had good years, like when he finished 30th in the KFT points standings in 2019 and just missed a PGA Tour card by five spots. He has also had his share of struggles. Campbell finished 98th on the KFT points list in the 2020-21 season and lost his exempt status. He made just three starts in 2022 but kept chopping and rediscovered his form last season when he finished seventh on the points list and earned his way back to the PGA Tour.
All of that led to this week at the 2025 Mexico Open at VidantaWorld, where Campbell put on his best performance in his PGA Tour career.
After shooting a bogey-free 64 on Saturday, Campbell entered Sunday’s final round just one shot back of 54-hole leader Aldrich Potgieter. It was the first time in his PGA Tour career that he entered the final round in the top five.
“Awesome,” Campbell said about putting himself in contention to win on Saturday. “I mean, it’s what dreams are made of. This is why I’ve worked so hard to get back here. It’s a blessing to be here this quickly, but I’m just enjoying the moment and going to continue to do what I’ve been doing this week tomorrow and see where it takes us.”
Campbell’s Sunday was the stuff of storybook legends. He tracked down Potgieter and finally beat the young South African on the second playoff hole with the help of an extremely lucky bounce off a tree.
A win at the 2025 Mexico Open comes with all the perks of winning a PGA Tour event (two-year exemption, a spot in the Players, a spot in the Masters, a spot in the PGA Championship, etc.) and a $1.26 million check.
