Professional career
Farr played on mini-tours after turning professional. He finished first on the 2013 PGA EuroPro Tour Order of Merit to earn his Challenge Tour card for 2014.[citation needed] He won the Turkish Airlines Challenge in May 2014.[2] He finished the season 10th in the Order of Merit to earn a place on the European Tour for 2015.
Farr only made 10 cuts in 30 events on the 2015 European Tour, lost his card and returned to the Challenge Tour for 2016 where he finished 36th in the Order of Merit. In 2017 he had his second Challenge Tour win, the Foshan Open, and finished the season 10th in the Order of Merit, returning to the European Tour for 2018.
Although Farr's second season on the European Tour was better than his first, he failed to regain his card and again returned to the Challenge Tour for 2019. In 2019 Farr has third win on the Challenge Tour, the Lalla Aïcha Challenge Tour, and by finishing 12th in the Order of Merit he returned to the European Tour for a third time.
