Cameron Smith has a big couple of weeks of golf ahead, and the Aussie will be a bit more aerodynamic when he walks the fairways at LIV Golf Miami and the Masters.
The 30-year-old captain of Ripper GC in the Saudi-backed LIV Golf League is known for his 2022 Open Championship victory at St. Andrews, and of course for his signature mullet hairstyle. Let me rephrase that: his former signature hairstyle.
Smith has chopped off his business in the front, party in the back style for a more reserved, spiked look ahead of his return to the golf course this week. The reason? Boredom.

Smith is currently eighth in the season-long LIV standings with finishes of T8-T15-T41-T2 so far. Following this week’s 2024 LIV Golf Miami event at Trump National Doral, Smith will return to Augusta National, where he finished T-34 last season after finishes of T2-T10-T3 in the three years prior.
It’s a real shame, as the mullet and green jacket combination in Butler Cabin would’ve been quite the sight to see.
