In a shocking turn of events, former world number two Cameron Smith finds himself grappling with a confidence crisis that has left him missing all major cuts in 2025. The Australian golfer, once celebrated as the British Open champion, has been candid about his struggles, admitting that despite his technical skills being at an all-time high, the results just aren’t there. After a disappointing performance at the British Open, where he became the only player this year to miss all four major cuts, Smith is determined to turn things around as he sets his sights on back-to-back LIV team championship victories. The golfing world has been watching closely as Smith, who currently ranks two hundred and twelfth globally, reflects on his journey. With only one of his fellow Australians, Marc Leishman, making it past the weekend at Royal Portrush, the pressure is mounting. Smith’s best finish this year has been a tie for fifth in twelve LIV events, and he knows he needs to step up his game. “Golf is a funny game,” he remarked, emphasizing the mental aspect of the sport. He believes the key to regaining his confidence lies in refining his short game, particularly chipping and putting. As he spends more time around the greens, honing those essential skills, Smith remains optimistic that it’s just a matter of time before he’s back to his best. With the LIV season finale looming in Michigan and an Australian Open appearance on the horizon, the golfing community is eager to see if Smith can reclaim his former glory. He’s committed to working hard and hitting the right shots on the course, and as he puts it, he’s slowly getting his confidence back. Will we see the return of the Cameron Smith who dominated the greens in previous years? Only time will tell as he navigates this challenging phase of his career. Stay tuned for what promises to be an exhilarating comeback story in the world of golf.
