Tyler Smith (born August 20, 1998) is a Canadian curler from Hunter River, Prince Edward Island. He currently plays skip for his own team.

Career

At the age of 11, Smith got the opportunity to compete as a skip at the 2011 Canada Winter Games. Smith then also got the opportunity to compete in the 2015 Canada Winter Games, representing PEI as the skip.

Smith made his debut in the Canadian curling brier in 2021. He got the opportunity to play as the third for PEI-veteran Eddie MacKenzie. They finished the brier with a record of 1–7, only beating Peter Mackey of Nunavut.

Smith made his debut as a skip in the brier in 2022 through an automatic berth due to the tournament getting cancelled over the COVID-19 pandemic. In the tournament this year, Smith would once again finish with a record of 1–7. This year he would only beat Nathan Young of Newfoundland and Labrador.

In 2023, Smith returned to the PEI Men's Curling Championship as it was not cancelled this year over the pandemic. He got through the 2023 PEI Tankard easily, by making the Darren Higgins rink forfeit in the finals. In the brier, he would finish with an improved 2–6 record this year.

In 2024, Smith won all three events in the 2024 PEI Tankard and qualified for the brier once again. This year they started off with a 4–1 record, and finish with an impressive 5–3 record and barely miss out on the playoffs.

Personal life

Smith owns and operates Smith's Excavating in Hunter River.
