Smith came into the 2022 PGA Tour season off the back of his finest year as a professional golfer. The 28-year-old qualified for the Sentry TOC after winning the Zurich Classic last season, and he made the most of it.
Smith completed the first round of the competition alone in first position at 8-under par, with two eagles and five birdies. He followed it up with two consecutive rounds of 64, putting him at 26-under par and tying Rahm for lead going into the final round.
Smith, who was paired with the world’s number one player for the final round, hit eight birdies and didn’t make any bogeys on way to an 8-under 65. He won the tournament with a one-stroke victory against Rahm on the last hole, finishing at 34-under par.
Rahm took second place with a score of 33 under par, while Matt Jones finished third with a score of 32 under par.
Smith achieved the PGA Tour record for the lowest 72-hole score ever.
The lowest 72-hole score in PGA Tour history was 31 under par until this weekend. At the 2003 Mercedes Championship, South African Ernie Els achieved the feat, however his record was only broken by three players in one day.
With their remarkable performances, Jones (32-under) and Rahm (33-under) both beat Els’ record, but Smith now has the lowest 72-hole score in PGA Tour history following his 34-under par effort.
After the triumph, Smith stated, “Mate, that was intense.” “The entire day, Jonny (Rahm) and I played great. Matty (Jones) was in the group in front of us, and he was also lighting it up. So, yes, incredible round, definitely something I’ll never forget… We had discussed it earlier in the day. We aimed for a 35-under score. By one, we had missed it. So, in that sense, it’s frustrating, but it’s amazing to have the win.”
Beginning in 2022, you’ll be paid $1.5 million.

Smith has won just over $17.5 million on the PGA Tour in his career prior to this week. Before this year, he had won three events on Tour, and his victory at the Sentry TOC was his fourth.
Smith will earn $1.476 million to begin the 2022 season, bringing his total career earnings to close to $20 million. But he should be most pleased of setting the PGA Tour record for the most prolific scoring week ever.
