Life and career
Boyd was born on 4 October 1986 in Banbury, England and attended Chenderit School in Middleton Cheney. He turned professional in 2007.
Boyd had a strong start to the 2009 Challenge Tour season, recording his first win at the Tusker Kenya Open. He followed that by finishing as runner-up to Edoardo Molinari at the Piemonte Open, to lead the Challenge Tour Rankings at the end of May.
He had a good first season on the European Tour in 2010, the highlight being a runner-up finish at the Czech Open and he finished 50th on the Order of Merit. However after a poor 2012 season he lost his full playing rights on tour.
In 2015 he played on the Challenge Tour, initially on invitations, and finished seventh to earn a return to the European Tour.
