Brian Campbell Claims John Deere Classic After Playoff Win

GOOD EVENING ALL

Hello all, and welcome to Golf Monthly's final round coverage of the John Deere Classic, where Brian Campbell currently leads a congested leaderboard.

The leaderboard has seen multiple changes but, as of now, it's Campbell who leads at 18-under, one shot clear of Jacob Bridgeman, who is playing the final hole and is eight-under for his day.

BIG SAVE FOR CAMPBELL

Playing the 12th, Campbell puts his first putt well short and, leaving a six-footer for par at the par 3, the American rolls it in to remain at 18-under, one shot clear over the back nine.

BOGEY FOR BRIDGEMAN

The American has played some great golf today but, at the final hole, Jacob Bridgeman shoves his par putt to the right and settles for a bogey. That drops him to 16-under, two back of Campbell at 18-under.

CAMPBELL LEADS BY TWO

This is superb from Campbell! The American's putter has been on fire today and, at the par 4 13th, Campbell holes a 15-footer to get to 19-under, two clear of Grillo, who is currently on the 12th hole.

GRILLO WITHIN ONE

Campbell seems to be increasing his lead but, behind the American, Grillo puts his tee shot at the par 3 12th to 11-foot, with the Argentinian holing his birdie putt to move within one of Campbell.

CAMPBELL CONTINUES TO LEAD

It's very close here at TPC Deere Run and, following a great par save, Campbell still leads at 19-under. However, at the par 4 15th, he pulls his tee shot left and it's deep in the hazard. He will have to drop well back for his next shot.

Behind the leader, Grillo is still one back after a par at the 13th, while several players are 16-under, two back of Campbell at 18-under.

APPROACH FROM CAMPBELL

Campbell takes a drop and, from 230-yards, the American hits a fairway wood short of the green. It's a good shot from Campbell, but he will have around 35-yards for an up-and-down bogey.

GRILLO PARS THE 14TH

Grillo is 18-under-par and, at the par 4 14th, his birdie putt slides by the right-side, with the 32-year-old remaining one back of Campbell.

DOUBLE FOR CAMPBELL

A huge swing at the par 4 15th, where Campbell fails to hole his bogey putt and taps in for a double. He falls from 19-under to 17-under, with Grillo now leading at 18-under. Huge moments in the closing stages...

GRILLO BOGEYS

Wow... I didn't expect this! Grillo misses a short putt for par and he is now in a three-way share of the lead with Roy and Campbell.

This is anyone's for the taking, but we are in for a thrilling finale at TPC Deere Run!

HOMA BIRDIES THE 16TH

Excellent from Homa, who is searching for his seventh PGA Tour title. The American puts it to five-foot on the par 3 16th and, holing his putt, Homa is now 16-under-par and one back of the lead.

SMOOTH

CAMPBELL LEADS

Campbell has played the 17th perfectly and, with an 18-footer for eagle, his putt slides by. He taps in for birdie, moving him to 18-under and into the outright lead!

SO CLOSE FOR HOMA

Playing the par 5 17th, Homa has a chance to move to 17-under, but his birdie attempt slides by the left side.

GRILLO TIES THE LEAD

Huge moment from Grillo, who birdies the par 5 17th! Faced with five-foot for birdie, the Argentinian rolls it into the center of the cup to join Campbell at 18-under.

CAMPBELL SHOOTS 67

Campbell's final round is finished and, at the 18th hole, he pars to remain 18-under. He is in a share of the lead with Grillo, who has found the fairway at the 72nd hole.

WHAT A SHOT FROM LIPSKY

That is a stunning shot from David Lipsky, who fires in a fairway wood at the par 5 17th to just eight-foot. From 250 yards, the American leaves himself a great chance to tie the lead!

Ahead, Grillo is on the fairway with his tee shot at the 18th, but his second is very safe and finds the center of the green. He will have a chance to get to 19-under.

WHAT AN EFFORT FROM GRILLO

Grillo leaves himself 38-foot for birdie at the last and, mid-way out, it looks in all the way. However, somehow it dives left and misses! Grillo taps in for par, remaining at 18-under.

EAGLE FOR LIPSKY

The drama continues! Where did this come from? Lipsky follows his incredible approach at the par 5 17th with an eagle putt to match.

He is now 18-under and now in a three-way tie for first. If he birdies the 18th he would win the tournament!

LIPSKY FINDS THE ROUGH

Lipsky pulls his tee shot well left at the 18th and, with 230 yards left in, the American lays up with his second! He'll need to get up-and-down for a par and a playoff.

FINAL HOLE DRAMA

Davis Thompson, who is the defending champion, just misses his putt at the last, with the American finishing 14-under-par.

Lipsky is the final player in the group and, after laying up, the American has 15-feett to join the playoff. It looks in all the way but, somehow, it slides by the left side!

We are heading for a playoff between Brian Campbell and Emiliano Grillo!

ADVANTAGE CAMPBELL

Campbell is up first and, with a driver in hand, he finds the center of the fairway with his tee shot. Grillo is up next, with his tee shot going right and into the crowd. It's advantage Campbell right now!

CAMPBELL CONTINUES HIS ADVANTAGE

Campbell is up first and, from the center of the fairway, he puts a delightful approach to 15-feet.

It's advantage to the American and, after Grillo takes relief from a sprinkler, he sees his second shot fly over the green. It's advantage Campbell.

BRIAN CAMPBELL WINS THE JOHN DEERE CLASSIC
