He ran a quick race at the British Athletics Championships, but was disqualified for a lane infringement.
His following race at the Glasgow Grand Prix marked a career breakthrough as he finished in the top three at the Diamond League race in a time of 44.97 seconds.
This made him only the second British teenager to dip under 45 seconds for the distance and placed him second on the European rankings for the season.
Hudson-Smith surprised himself with the level of improvement, saying "I've no idea where that came from, no idea at all".
On his return to Glasgow for the Commonwealth Games he ran the fastest split on the final leg to overhaul Trinidad and Tobago's Zwede Hewitt and hold off Olympic champion Chris Brown, winning the gold medal for the team.
At the 2014 European Athletics Championships in Zürich, Switzerland, Hudson-Smith won the silver medal in the individual 400 m in a time of 44.75 seconds, behind compatriot Martyn Rooney.
This is despite receiving a yellow card (warning) from the officials for not being stable in the set position.
