The South African surfer win a heat that also featured both Mick Fanning and Nat Young.

Fanning will now have to face Jadson Andre in fifth round action.

Kelly Slater has a fifth round date with reigning world champion Gabriel Medina.

Smith, the only South African on the elite tour this year, secured an automatic quarter-final spot by winning his fourth round outing.

Yaya Toure, meanwhile, is fit for the English Premier League clash between Manchester City and Crystal Palace tonight.

James Milner remains doubtful for the action at Selhurst Park, while Palace are definitely without Mile Jedinak.

The Australian is suspended and will not feature for the Eagles in London.
