Professional career
After turning professional in 2007, Horsey played three more events on Europe's development tour, before making his third attempt to win a place on the elite European Tour via qualifying school, but like his previous efforts, he failed to get through to the final stage.
In his first full season on the Challenge Tour in 2008, Horsey recorded two victories, at the Telenet Trophy and the AGF-Allianz EurOpen de Lyon, and seven other top-ten finishes, as he ended the year on top of the rankings to graduate to the European Tour for 2009. [6] During 2008, he also received several invites to full European Tour events, the highlight of which was his début appearance on the tour at the MasterCard Masters, where he finished in a tie for 5th place.

In February 2009, Horsey collected the biggest cheque of his career by posting a final round 64 at the Maybank Malaysian Open to finish as joint runner-up, just one stroke behind winner Anthony Kang. [8] He retained his card for 2010, finishing within the top 100 of the Race to Dubai.
In June 2010, Horsey achieved his first European Tour win at the 2010 BMW International Open. [9] He finished the season ranked 32nd on the Order of Merit.
In April 2011, Horsey won his second European Tour event, the Trophée Hassan II. He defeated Rhys Davies and Jaco van Zyl at the second playoff hole with a birdie 3 while Davies and van Zyl parred. [10] After finishing 7th in the 2011 BMW PGA Championship Horsey reached a career high of 77 in the world rankings.
