Former Indiana star Jorge Campillo finishes 2nd in Euro Tour event, vaulting up world rankings

For the first time in nearly four years, an Indiana Hoosier might be soon back on a major championship level stage in professional golf.

After a 2nd-place finish at the European Tour’s Tshwane Open in South Africa this past weekend, Jorge Campillo surged into the the Top 125 of the Official World Golf Ranking — the first time a Hoosier’s been ranked that high since Jeff Overton in June 2013. This stupid-good up-and-down from below the TV tower was the highlight of another solid week to start 2017 for the former Hoosier star.

It’s been a heck of a start to the 2016-17 wrap around Euro Tour schedule for Campillo.
