Welcome to another edition of The Grind, where we couldn’t be more proud of our colleague and friend, Joel Beall. I’ve worked with this guy for about a decade—putting up with his use of a questionably hot 3-wood for much of that time—and watched him become one of the best golf writers around.

The victory sends him to the Masters, The Players Championship and the PGA Championship, along with five of the signature events left on the tour schedule. Campbell and Potgieter, who shot 71, each made birdie on the 18th in regulation and began the playoff with a par.

Brian Campbell cashed in on a huge break Sunday when his tee shot in a playoff bounced out of the trees and back into play, leading to a birdie on the second extra hole to win the Mexico Open over Aldrich Potgieter.
