Masterton's Ben Campbell finished in a share of 19th place at the Sahalee Players Championship golf tournament in Sammamish, Washington.
Campbell carded rounds of 75, 74, 76 and 72 at the Sahalee Country Club to finish nine over par, 18 shots back from American Ben Geyer, who won the event with a nine-under par total.
The solid effort from Campbell should have helped his chances of earning selection later this month in New Zealand's squad for the Eisenhower Trophy world amateur team's championship to be played in Turkey.
