Brian Campbell won’t be making it to the weekend at Palm Harbor.
And the 36-hole cut at Copperhead Course has nothing to do with it. Rather, the No. 99-ranked Campbell withdrew before completing the 16th hole on Friday.
He cited a neck injury for leaving Valspar.

Campbell’s first shot on the 10th hole went into the water, he went on to bogey that to start his second round.
He opened the tournament with a 2-over 73. He started that round with a birdie on the first hole. He was bogey-free through the first dozen holes before double bogeying on 13 and adding strokes on 16 and 18.
Campbell was coming into the Valspar off of three straight cuts at the Genesis, Arnold Palmer and The Players.
His withdrawal marks the seventh player to exit from the original field.
Keith Mitchell, Robert MacIntyre, Sudarshan Yellamaraju and William Mouw all tapped out on Monday, March 16. Later in the week, Valspar officials heard Akshay Bhatia and Max Greyersman would also not be competing in the four-day affair at Innisbrook.
