Campbell, who played collegiate tennis for the University of Miami, made the round of 16 at the 1984 Japan Open Tennis Championships, defeating world number 63 Nduka Odizor en route.[1][2] Partnering Joey Rive, Campbell was a losing doubles finalist at the Swedish Open in 1986.[2] The following year, he reached the singles quarter-finals in the Tel Aviv Open.[2]
He was only able to progress past the first round of a Grand Slam tournament once, which was at the 1990 French Open, in the mixed doubles with Mary Pierce.[3] His two appearances in the main singles draw ended in disappointment. In the 1986 US Open he squandered a two set lead to lose to Bob Green and he was defeated in another five set match at the 1989 US Open, to Peter Lundgren.[2]
