Professional career

Smith turned professional in 2014. He played mainly on the PGA EuroPro Tour in 2015 winning twice. He also won the tour's Order of Merit which gained him a Challenge Tour card for 2016. He won two Challenge Tour events in 2016, the Red Sea Egyptian Challenge and the Ras Al Khaimah Golf Challenge. [2] He finished leader of the Challenge Tour Order of Merit to earn a place on the European Tour for 2017.

Smith started the 2022 European Tour season with runner-up finishes at the Ras Al Khaimah Championship [3] and the MyGolfLife Open in South Africa; where he was defeated in a playoff by Pablo Larrazábal on the second extra hole. [4] In October, Smith claimed his second victory on the European Tour at the Portugal Masters, shooting 30-under-par for four rounds (including two rounds of 62) on way to winning by three shots ahead of Gavin Green. It was also a wire-to-wire victory. [5] His aggregate score of 254 and score in relation to par, was better than the European Tour scoring record at the time, however it was considered as an unofficial record due to preferred lies being in place.
