Brian Campbell Wins the Mexico Open

• Aldrich Potgieter, the 20-year-old South African, led by one stroke heading into the final round.
• Potgieter carded an even-par round, while Campbell’s one-under 70 forced a sudden-death playoff on the par-five 18th.
• Both players missed birdie putts on the first playoff hole, leading to another trip down the 18th.

• Campbell’s tee shot veered right, seemingly heading out of bounds—until it hit a tree and bounced back into play.
• Potgieter found the bunker, failing to convert his birdie opportunity.
• Campbell seized the moment, sinking a short putt to clinch his maiden PGA Tour victory.

“You’ve got to get those breaks sometimes,” Campbell admitted. “I hit a bad tee shot, but the tree kept it in play. That gave me a chance to put the pressure on and come out on top.”

• Isaiah Salinda fired a six-under final round to take third place at 19-under.
• England’s Aaron Rai finished tied for fifth at 18-under, alongside Ben Griffin.
