Born in Bendigo, Victoria, and raised in Lismore, New South Wales, Gibson was a four-time NAIA All-American at Oklahoma Christian University.

2012

Gibson shot a 55 (−16) for a round of golf on 12 May 2012, at River Oaks Golf Club in Edmond, Oklahoma, setting a Guinness World Record.

2014

Gibson made the cut at the 2014 Open Championship, where in the 3rd round he played in a group with Tiger Woods and Jordan Spieth.

In December 2014, he finished fourth in the Web.com Tour qualifying tournament to earn a place on the 2015 Web.com Tour.

2015

In 2015 he finished 33rd in the regular season, then tenth (excluding the regular season Top 25) in the Web.com Finals to earn a place on the PGA Tour for 2015-16.

2018

In January 2018, an incident involving Gibson and his temporary caddie Brandon Davis caused controversy.

Playing in The Bahamas Great Abaco Classic on the Web.com Tour, Gibson was caught on camera throwing his putter headcover at Davis after the caddie had picked his ball up in a hazard – resulting in a one-stroke penalty.

2019

Gibson finished 199th on the FedEx Cup and 30th on the Web.com Tour money list, but his PGA Tour season was highlighted by a double eagle on the par-5 18th at the Barracuda Championship, worth eight points under the tournament's Modified Stableford scoring system.

The shot was worth $50,000 to a Nevada charity, plus $50,000 to a charity of Gibson's choice.

Gibson chose Maximum Chances, the autism charity of tournament winner and countryman Greg Chalmers.

* Note: The 2019 BMW Charity Pro-Am was shortened to 54 holes due to rain.
