Rafael Campos closing in on dream win at Puerto Rico Open
Rafael Campos dials in approach to set up birdie at Puerto Rico
RIO GRANDE, Puerto Rico – Rafael Campos missed a 1-foot putt for par at the final hole Saturday at the Puerto Rico Open – there is no typo there – but he wasn’t about to let it ruin what had been a magnificent day. Sunday for him could be even bigger.
Campos, 32, is a native son of Puerto Rico and the only current PGA TOUR professional from the island. He grew up in Guaynaba, only a 40-minute drive from Grand Reserve Country Club. This is the 13th edition of the tournament, and only a torn back muscle in 2020 kept Campos from competing in all of them. Twice he has finished in the top 10 here (2016 and 2017), performances that filled his country with pride. This week could be next-level stuff.
