Ouimet Scholar and Westford native Morgan Smith is one of the most accomplished young amateur golfers in the state.
The Smith family is synonymous with golf in Massachusetts. Morgan’s dad Phil is a former Mass mid-amateur champion, and both of her younger sisters are talented golfers, including Molly who plays collegiately at Central Florida. The Smith’s grew up playing at Vesper Country Club in Tyngsborough, and Morgan eventually began playing and working the pro shop at Mount Pleasant Golf Club in Lowell.
Morgan’s accomplishments as a golfer and a student earned her a spot on the Division I women’s golf team at Georgetown University in Washington, DC. She was recently named BIG EAST Freshman of the Year after finishing second overall for the Hoyas in her first BIG EAST Championship.
Morgan is the two-time defending champion of the New England Women’s Amateur, and won her first Massachusetts Women’s Amateur in dramatic fashion back in 2022. She qualified for her first U.S. Women’s Amateur in 2023 and competed at Bel-Air Country Club in Los Angeles.
