Paces Mexico Open in SG: ARG Hughes fired a five-under 66 on Sunday at the VidantaWorld Mexico Open to finish 19-under and tied for fourth place.

Top-10 at Charles Schwab Challenge Hughes posted a nine-under cumulative score at the Charles Schwab Challenge to finish tied with Steven Fisk and Ryan Gerard for 10th.

Impact Hughes opened the tournament with a four-under 66 before following that up with a three-under 67 score Friday. The 35-year-old Canadian gained only two strokes over the final two days of the tournament, but he did enough to capture his first top-10 finish of the season. Hughes finished T52 or worse in each of his seven outings (including three missed cuts) prior to teeing off at Colonial Country Club. His game around and on the green propelled him to his best finish of 2025, finishing fourth and sixth in SG: Around-the-Green and Putting, respectively. He also ranked seventh in scrambling and 16th in driving distance, though he was near the bottom of the pack in both GIR and SG: Approach. Hughes isn't in the field for the Memorial Tournament next week but will be back in action on home soil at the RBC Canadian Open in two weeks time.

T34 at Pebble Hughes fired a four-under 68 on Sunday at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am to finish 12-under and tied for 34th.

Impact Hughes played hole Nos. 12-15 in a collective five-under-par during Sunday's final round at Pebble Beach, highlighted by an eagle on the par-5 14th where he stuck a 260-yard approach to 5.5 feet. The Canadian ultimately ranked T17 among the field in GIR percentage and 25th in SG: Ballstriking for the week, though he lost strokes putting for the third time in four starts this season.

Consistent play in Phoenix Hughes posted an even par 71 Sunday in the final round of the WM Phoenix Open to finish tied for 28th.

Impact While Hughes didn't light up the scorecard this week in any round, he was one of the most consistent players, breaking par in his first three rounds. He began his week with a solid three-under par 68, carding three birdies and one bogey in his opening round. He then followed this round with two rounds of two-under 69 to get him to seven-under par for the tournament heading into Sunday. An even par 71 in the final round wasn't want Hughes was hoping for to finish his week, but he was at least able to capture a top-30 while not having his best stuff this week. This week Hughes lost strokes against the field both in SG: Off the Tee and in SG: Approach, ranking outside the top-50 in both categories. If he can improve on these areas, with his short game seeming to be in a good spot, look for Hughes to find his name closer to the top of the leaderboard.
