This week, the PGA Tour hosted the John Deere Classic in Silvis, Illinois. Scores were low, and it came down to the wire as multiple guys battled throughout the final day.
Two players emerged after 72 holes as Brian Campbell and Emiliano Grillo finished at 18-under overall. Both guys shot 4-under 67 on Sunday to emerge from the rest.
Campbell came out on top after making par on the 73rd hole to defeat Grillo and win for the second time in 2025. He also won the 2025 Mexico Open at VidantaWorld, where he defeated Aldrich Potgieter in a playoff.
With this win, Campbell will take home $1,512,000 and jump to No. 28 in the FedEx Cup standings.
Grillo may be disappointed in finishing second, but he still won $915,600 this week in Illinois.
Kevin Roy gave himself a chance to win the title after he shot an incredible 6-under 65 Sunday to move up seven spots and claim a piece of third place.
Joining him was David Lipsky, who made a clutch eagle on the par-5 17th to tie Grillo and Campbell at 18-under, but a costly bogey on 18 kept him out of the playoff. He and Roy each earned $579,600.
Six players tied for fifth to win $297,300 for the week.
Among those six was Max Homa, who put himself into contention throughout the week. A few missed opportunities kept him from taking home the title and ending his winless drought.
Regardless, Homa should come away from this tournament with a lot of confidence in his game.
The 54-hole leader, Davis Thompson, struggled Sunday as he signed for a 1-over 72. At the turn, he was 2-under and got his round back under par, but a bogey on 18 cost him a T11 finish. Instead, he was T18 with Rickie Fowler and Patrick Fishburn. They earned $119,700.
