Early life

Professional career
After playing on PGA Tour Latinoamérica in 2012 and 2013, Burgoon reached the Web.com Tour for the 2014 season through Q School. In 2015, he finished 18th on the regular-season Web.com Tour money list and graduated to the PGA Tour.
In his rookie PGA Tour season, Burgoon finished 132nd in the FedEx Cup standings, retaining conditional status for 2017. An injury kept him from competing between September 2016 and July 2017. He was granted a non-exempt medical extension, which also made him eligible for the 2017 Web.com Tour Finals. In the Finals, he earned enough to regain full status for the 2018 season.
