It was an exciting weekend at TPC Deere Run in Silvis, Illinois, as the John Deere Classic ended with a dramatic playoff. Brian Campbell emerged with the victory, edging out Emiliano Grillo on the first extra hole. The gallery roared as Campbell calmly sank his final putt, securing a win that capped off a strong week of consistent ball striking and clutch putting.

Campbell made par in the playoff, while Grillo carded a bogey. Campbell’s final round was a solid 4-under 67.

This marked Campbell’s second win of the PGA Tour season. His first came in February at the Mexico Open at Vidanta, which he also won in a playoff.

Following the tournament, payouts were released. According to Golf.com, Campbell earned $1.512 million for his win.

The 32-year-old from Orange County, California, played college golf at the University of Illinois. Before turning pro, he was the low amateur at the 2015 U.S. Open, finishing tied for 27th.

Campbell’s win earned him over $600,000 more than Grillo, who collected $915,600 for his runner-up finish. David Lipsky and Kevin Roy finished one shot behind the leaders and each took home $495,600.

Six players tied for fifth place, including Max Homa, Carson Young, Jacob Bridgeman, Lucas Glover, Matt Kuchar and Kurt Kitayama. Each earned $278,250.

Six more players tied for 11th, each earning $174,300. That group included Si Woo Kim, Nick Dunlap and Beau Hossler. Rickie Fowler was one of three players who tied for 17th and received $128,100.

Next up on the PGA Tour is the Scottish Open at the Renaissance Club. After that, the Open Championship tees off July 17 at Royal Portrush’s Dunluce Links.
