2019–20 Fantasy Outlook
A pair of 63s to open the Ellie Mae Classic in early August foreshadowed what was to come for NeSmith during the Korn Ferry Tour Finals, as he went on to fire a seven-under 64 during the final round of the Albertsons Boise Open and win the event by one stroke while locking up a PGA Tour card for the first time. NeSmith has made five career starts at the PGA Tour level, though he's missed the cut in each attempt and was unable to break 70 in all 10 rounds. He led the entire KFT in GIR percentage throughout the 2019 season, however, and NeSmith also ranked 11th in total driving. Read Past Outlooks

Third in SG: APP at Pebble
February 16, 2021
NeSmith fired a four-under 68 on Sunday at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am to finish nine-under and tied for 16th.
ANALYSIS
NeSmith rebounded from a first-round 74 by playing his final 54 holes in a collective 11-under-par to notch his fifth top-20 of the season, rising to a career-best 154th in the Official World Golf Ranking. He ranked third among the field in SG: Approach and fourth in SG: Tee-to-Green at Pebble Beach, but he gained 1.229 strokes with the flat stick as well.
