Charlie Smail eyes similar professional path as his dad IAN ANDERSONNZ GOLF Charlie Smail celebrates his NZ amateur men's golf title win with father David Smail. Newly-crowned national men's amateur golf champion Charlie Smail is eyeing the same country where father David has made a lucrative career, as the 20-year-old ponders his future. "In the end I'd like to do the same as what dad's done and play in Japan," Smail said days after his impressive title win at Wairakei. Smail senior has won over $NZ12 million in his career, chiefly on the Japan Tour, with his strength being his accuracy off the tee and with his irons. But at the NZ amateur champs, with mother Sheree - a former NZ amateur star - caddying, Charlie altered his game to suit the conditions.
