Jordan Smith

Jordan Lewis Smith was born on 9 November 1992 in Bath, Somerset. He is an English professional golfer competing on both the DP World Tour and the PGA Tour, having earned PGA Tour status for 2026 after finishing 16th on the Race to Dubai at the end of the 2025 season. His career high world ranking of 65 was reached in March 2026. His headline major result remains a tied-ninth finish at the 2017 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, one of the finest debuts by a European player in that event in recent years.

Smith came through the amateur ranks with genuine distinction, winning the 2013 Brabazon Trophy (English Amateur Stroke Play Championship) at Formby and representing Great Britain and Ireland at the Walker Cup that same year. He turned professional in 2014, won twice on the PGA EuroPro Tour in 2015 to top its Order of Merit, and then won the Red Sea Egyptian Challenge and the Ras Al Khaimah Golf Challenge on the Challenge Tour in 2016, finishing top of the Challenge Tour Rankings to earn his European Tour card. He secured his maiden European Tour title at the 2017 Porsche European Open, beating Alexander Levy in a playoff. Five years later he claimed his second victory at the 2022 Portugal Masters in commanding fashion, posting a 30-under-par total across four rounds that included two separate rounds of 62 and a closing 63, winning by three shots.

Smith's game is built on ball-striking rather than putting. That tee-to-green quality has produced consistent results in the majors: a T20 at the 2023 U.S. Open and multiple appearances at The Open Championship, including a return to the field for the 154th Open at Royal Birkdale in July 2026. He appeared at Aronimink for the 2026 PGA Championship and missed the cut, but his first full PGA Tour season gives him more chances to show what his iron game can do on the biggest stages.
