Rico Hoey - Golf News, Rumors, & Updates

Season-best SG: Putting performance Hoey fired a three-under 68 on Sunday at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson to finish 15-under and tied for 19th.

Impact Hoey gained a season-high 4.19 strokes putting throughout his week at TPC Craig Ranch, but he also lost a career-worst 5.38 strokes on approach while hitting just 50 of 72 greens in regulation. Nonetheless, he tallied 19 total birdies and converted 19 of 22 scrambling opportunities in McKinney, ranking third among the Byron Nelson field in driving accuracy as well. He'll tee it up next at Colonial Country Club where he tied for 66th in his Charles Schwab Challenge debut last year.

T60 at PGA Championship Hoey carded a three-over 73 on Sunday at the PGA Championship to finish four-over and tied for 60th.

Impact Hoey lost 2.28 strokes putting while converting just one of six scrambling opportunities during Sunday's final round at Aronimink, but he finished the week ranked 12th among the field in SG: Ballstriking and 15th in overall proximity. It's tough to trust Hoey's putter at a birdie fest like the upcoming CJ Cup Byron Nelson, though he made the cut at TPC Craig Ranch last year.

Sixth in SG: OTT at Memorial Park Hoey carded an even-par 70 on Sunday at the Texas Children's Houston Open to finish seven-under and tied for 28th.

Impact Hoey gained more than five strokes from tee to green for a second consecutive outing, and he ranked sixth among the field at Memorial Park in SG: Off-the-Tee. However, Hoey also lost 1.26 strokes with the putter, averaging just 62' 7" feet of putts made per round in Houston. He'll be in attendance again this week for the Valero Texas Open where he tied for 14th in 2024.

Seventh in SG: OTT at Valspar Hoey closed with a one-over 72 on Sunday at the Valspar Championship to finish three-under and tied for 26th.

Impact Hoey ranked seventh among the field in SG: Off-the-Tee at Innisbrook en route to his second-best finish of the season, but he also lost 1.76 strokes on the greens while making just 52' 8" feet of putts per round. Nonetheless, Hoey has now made the cut in back-to-back starts ahead of the upcoming Texas Children's Houston Open where he tied for 11th last year.

Improved putting at TPC Sawgrass Hoey posted a five-over cumulative score at THE PLAYERS Championship to finish in a four-way tie for 62nd.

Impact It was an up-and-down tournament for Hoey, who opened with a five-over 77 score before sneaking into the weekend with a three-under 69 in the second round. That inconsistency reared its ugly head Sunday, when Hoey opened the back nine of the final round with four consecutive birdies before carding a bogey and double bogey on the 16th and 17th holes, respectively. His putting game has typically held him back in the past, though Hoey ranked 11th in SG: Putting at TPC Sawgrass. He ranked third and eighth in SG: Off-the-Tee and SG: Approach, respectively, during the 2025 season; while he hasn't been as strong in those categories this year, a return to that kind of form -- coupled with his improved putting game -- could serve him well next week at the Valspar Championship.

MARCH 17 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't make cut at The Genesis Hoey missed the cut by two strokes at The Genesis Invitational after posting a two-over cumulative score.

Impact Hoey opened the tournament with a two-over 73 first round, but he looked like he would work his way to the weekend after going three-under on the front nine of the second round. Unfortunately for the 30-year-old Puerto Rican, things fell apart on the back nine, where he posted a double bogey and two bogeys from holes 12 through 15. Hoey will look to bounce back next week at the Cognizant Classic, where he made the cut in each of his two prior outings (T56 in 2024 and T25 in 2025).

FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Putter remains cold at Pebble Hoey closed with a one-under 71 on Sunday at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am to finish three-under and tied for 67th.

Impact Hoey's short game remains a major concern as he lost a collective 6.94 strokes on and around the greens across four rounds at Pebble Beach and Spyglass Hill. He's lost at least 2.7 strokes putting in four consecutive starts dating back to The American Express, and Hoey now faces Riviera's difficult poa greens in his Genesis Invitational debut this week.

FEBRUARY 17 • ROTOWIRE

Surges to T24 at TPC Scottsdale Hoey fired a five-under 66 in the final round of the WM Phoenix Open to finish tied for 24th.

Impact Hoey saved his best day at TPC Scottsdale for last, with his final round highlighted by three consecutive birdies from holes one to three. His game on the green continues to be his downfall (70th in SG: Putting) and has overshadowed other components of his game, as Hoey ranked in the top-20 in the field in driving accuracy, SG: Approach to Green and SG: Off the Tee. He has made the cut in three of four PGA Tour outings this season, though he's dropped to 73rd in the OWGR from 69 at the end of 2025. He's qualified for next week's AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am through the Aon Next 10, which will be his first appearance at the signature event.

T70 at Farmers Insurance Open Hoey closed with a four-over 76 on Sunday at the Farmers Insurance Open to finish two-over and tied for 70th.

Impact Hoey made the cut at Torrey Pines in his return from an illness that forced him to withdraw from The American Express one week prior, but he lost a collective 6.45 strokes on and around the greens across three measured rounds in San Diego. On a more positive note, he ranked 16th among the FIO field in SG: Approach. Hoey will tee it up next at TPC Scottsdale for his second career WMPO appearance, having missed the cut in his debut here last year.

T50 in 2026 debut Hoey recorded an even-par 70 on Sunday at the Sony Open in Hawaii to finish four-under and tied for 50th.

Impact Hoey uncharacteristically finished on the positive side of SG: Putting at Waialae Country Club, but he still lost 1.44 strokes around the green while hitting only 49 of 72 greens in regulation throughout the week. Nonetheless, he extended his made-cut streak to six starts, and he'll tee it up again this week at The American Express where he tied for 58th last year.

Impact Hoey hit all 14 fairways in regulation en route to a bogey-free Sunday outing at El Cardonal at Diamante, where he ultimately averaged six birdies per round. The T21 result is Hoey's 10th top-25 finish of the 2025 PGA Tour season, improving three spots to No. 58 in the FedExCup Fall standings. He'll tee it up again this week at Port Royal where he tied for 17th in his Butterfield Bermuda Championship debut last year.

Flirts with first PGA Tour win Hoey finished in second place at the Bank of Utah Championship following his four-under 67 in the final round.

Impact Hoey put together a great performance this week that included an eight-under 63 on Saturday, but he was still four shots behind Michael Brennan at the end of 72 holes. Hoey has been one of the best ball-strikers on Tour over the last couple years and it was another vintage performance as he ranked ninth in SG: Off-the-Tee and second in SG: Approach at Black Desert Resort. Hoey made two eagles and 25 birdies for the week, but also had seven bogeys and a pair of doubles. The margins are very fine when it comes to winning on the PGA Tour, but Hoey is certainly a player that is trending towards a victory out here. He moves up to 61st in the FedExCup Fall standings and is one spot out from earning an exemption into the first two signature events in 2026.
