Drops to T21 after 36-hole lead Smith posted an even-par 70 in the final round of the Genesis Scottish Open to finish in a five-way tie for 21st.

Impact Smith caught fire Friday with a seven-under 63 with eight birdies and a bogey, and he entered the weekend tied with Rory McIlroy and eventual winner Tom Kim atop the leaderboard. However, Smith was unable to maintain that weekend over the next two days, posting a two-over 72 on Saturday before failing to make any ground in the final round, a performance that was eerily similar to his outing at the Charles Schwab Challenge in late May. The Englishman connected on 37 of 52 fairways, which was tied for the best driving accuracy in the field. He also ranked T3 in scrambling, T6 in GIR, T10 in bogeys and T11 in SG: Off-the-Tee, though he also finished 50th and 54th in SG: Putting and Around, respectively.

The Englishman was in a good spot for his maiden victory on the PGA Tour, but he was sunk by a four-over 74 score Saturday that included three consecutive bogeys from holes five to seven. He recovered slightly with a two-under 68 in the final round to crack the top-15, but it was a far cry from where he was after 36 holes. Smith was one of the better ball strikers at Colonial Country Club, ranking third in the field in SG: Off-the-Tee (including T2 in driving accuracy) as well as T8 in GIR, 13th in SG: Around-the-Green and 22nd in SG: Approach. His performance on the green let him down, particularly in the third round, when he lost 4.18 strokes with his putter. Smith is listed as an alternate for the Memorial Tournament next week.

He went five-under over his final 14 holes of the day and had his chances of jumping to the top of the leaderboard, including a 12-foot birdie putt on the par-3 17th that barely missed to the left. Smith led the field at the Valspar Championship in GIR while ranking third in birdies made, fourth in SG: Off-the-Tee and in the top-20 in driving distance, SG: Approach and SG: Around-the-Green.
