Yes, it has a great effect as the smoker athlete takes a deep amount of carbon monoxide, which is considered to enter the lungs and leaves black spots on the lung. The effects of cigarettes can be seen on the lungs in the form of black spots. Tar spots known by smokers who appear after chronic cough in the morning, cover the lungs and effectively lead to reduced respiratory ability to breathe air and absorb oxygen in the lungs. These effects lead to low tracer-lung tolerance of the trainee, and studies clearly show statistically significant differences between smokers and non-smokers.
Smoking influences people in different ways. Some people, however, including athletes and non-athletes may not be affected at all and the presupposed harms do not reduce the quality of their health and performance.
Smoking not only kills the one who smoke also others who are associated with the smoker

Dear بيداء طارق الشيخلي
Smoking and Increased Health Risks. Smokers are more likely than nonsmokers to develop heart disease, stroke, and lung cancer. Estimates show smoking increases therisk: For coronary heart disease by 2 to 4 times
The harmful effects established a long time ago for all humans. However, the "smoking lobby" gives out donations to sports clubs, etc who utterly depend on them. Therefore, smoking goes on and on killing innocent people. The situation is pathetic. Those studying its effects have a formula for each country: For instance for the UK, the number of deaths (of smokers) each year is predictable, about 100,000 people.
May be , I am smoking 30 cigarettes /day since last 30 years and still I am fit and healthy and playing badminton still at the age of 65 .
