}}Sidney Smith (26 March 1908 – 26 June 1990) was a professional billiards and snooker player from the 1930s to the 1950s. He was born in Killamarsh, Derbyshire, England.[1]

He was the first player to make a total clearance in snooker competition, a break of 133 on 11 December 1936 in the Daily Mail Gold Cup.[1]

Smith's most notable tournament wins were the 1948 United Kingdom Professional Billiards Championship (beating John Barrie 7000-6428)[1] and the 1951/1952 News of the World Snooker Tournament.[2][3]

Smith was the runner-up to Joe Davis in the World Snooker Championships of 1938 (having beaten Joe's brother Fred 18–13 in the semi-final)[4] and 1939,[5] and he was a semi-finalist on four occasions (1937,[6] 1940,[7] 1947,[8] 1949[9]).

Smith was the runner-up to Alec Brown in the 1938/1939 Daily Mail Gold Cup[10] and later runner-up to Joe Davis in the 1949/50 News of the World Tournament[2] and the 1950 Sporting Record Masters' Snooker Tournament.

Smith made three 1000+ billiard breaks in his career, with his highest being a break of 1292.[1]

Smith died in 1990 aged 82.[3]
