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.

World record

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.
