In 2021, he won three PDC European Challenge Tour tournaments and topped the ranking, thus he earned a PDC Tour Card for 2022/2023, a place at the 2022 PDC World Darts Championship and a place at the 2021 Grand Slam of Darts. [5] He played in Group F at the Grand Slam and lost all three matches to Mensur Suljovic, José De Sousa and Luke Humphries, finishing last in his group.

In 2024, Campbell won the North American Darts Championship by defeating Stowe Buntz 6–4 in the final.

[13] Despite this setback, Campbell still managed to qualify for the World Championship through the PDC Tour Card Holder Qualifier, where he defeated Mario Vandenbogaerde 6–1 and Andy Baetens 6–3 before beating Mervyn King in their quarter's final 7–6 in a deciding leg.
