After closing with a 66 on Sunday — his best round of the year — Camilo Villegas was part of a four-way playoff at the Honda Classic that concluded today. Mark Wilson won with a birdie on the third playoff hole.
Is Villegas closing in on his first PGA Tour victory? Looks like it.
The colorful Colombian native is No. 27 on the money list with $527,267. Villegas now has three second-place finishes over the last two years: the FBR Open, the Ford Championship at Doral and The Honda Classic. Camilo also finished third at The Player’s Championship last year.

Camilo’s getting a reputation for being a great player in Florida. That’s not good when there are plenty of tournaments in other states that he has to play well in too.
Camilo’s young, he has time. I’m looking forward to seeing him in Hartford in June. Maybe that’ll be it.
It’s been a great week for him. I’ve been following this young Columbian since he first started his career. He never seems to fail me yet. This guy has the potential. Might never be as good as Tiger Woods, but he’s definitely someone to look out for.
