Professional career

Henry played on the Challenge Tour in 2009 with little success. He returned to the tour in 2012, winning his first title at the Kazakhstan Open.{{cite web |url=http://www.europeantour.com/challengetour/season=2012/tournamentid=2012768/news/newsid=173338.html |title=Great Scott seals dramatic Kazakhstan triumph |publisher=PGA European Tour |date=16 September 2012 |accessdate=16 September 2012}} He finished 11th in the Order of Merit to gain a place on the European Tour for 2013. His best finish in 2013 was joint fourth in the Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles and from 2014 to 2016 he played mainly on the Challenge Tour. In 2014 he lost in a playoff for the Madeira Islands Open, a joint European Tour/Challenge Tour event and came second again in the same event in 2015. In 2016 he was joint runner-up in the Vierumäki Finnish Challenge. At the end of 2016 he finished joint second in the European Tour Q-school to gain a place on the main tour for 2017. 2017 was a disappointing season and he returned to the Challenge Tour for 2018.

Henry missed out on his second Challenge Tour win after finishing 6-5-6 at the 2018 Galgorm Resort & Spa Northern Ireland Open. He had led by three strokes after 15 holes and finished tied for second place, a stroke behind Calum Hill.{{cite news |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/golf/45241468 |title=NI Open: Scotland's Calum Hill claims dramatic victory at NI Open after Scott Henry collapse |date=19 August 2018 |publisher=BBC Sport}}
