Career

Born in 1966, Campbell first experienced competitive snooker in the 1986 Scottish Amateur Championship, where Steve Muir beat him 9–3 in the final. During the 1988–89 season, he entered three WPBSA main tour qualifying events, reaching the final of Event 2 of the Pro Ticket Series, where Thai prospect James Wattana defeated him 5–1, and winning his match against Gary Filtness 5–2 in the Professional Play-offs to secure his place on tour.

Campbell's first season as a professional was underwhelming; early exits in the Hong Kong Open to Les Dodd and in the Asian Open to John Rea were followed by second-round losses in the next four ranking events. In the 1990 European Open, he overcame Pat Houlihan and Dave Gilbert to reach the last 64, but was beaten there 5–4 by John Virgo.

At the 1990 Dubai Classic, Campbell produced the best performance of his career, defeating Ken Owers, Craig Edwards and Tony Meo to reach the last 32, where he lost 3–5 to Jason Whittaker; he repeated this feat in that season's European Open, but again could progress no further, losing 2–5 to Steve James.

Campbell's ranking had improved to 66th for the 1990–91 season, but the next was poor, heralding only three wins from fourteen matches. Having lost all nine of his matches in 1992–93, he did not play professionally again; ranked 158th by that season's conclusion, Campbell was relegated from the tour in 1994.

gollark: The obvious solution is mind control, but distributed in a way conspiracists are likely to take (not vaccines).
gollark: They're not THAT internally inconsistent I think. Presumably they have empathy or something and don't want other people to be mind controlled by the government or whatever (or somehow think they can convince other people to support their thing).
