Rico Hoey

29-Year-Old Golfer
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Hoey's 2024 campaign was a tale of two seasons. The Tour rookie missed his first four cuts and had just one top-25 through 15 events, but he flipped the switch thereafter with four top-10s, including a playoff loss in an alterate event. His ball-striking numbers indicate that he's likely not just a flash in the pan considering he ranked ninth in SG: Off-the-tee, 83rd in approach and 19th in GIR. If he can get off to a better start in 2025 and improve his short game, Hoey is a good candidate to make the playoffs next year. Read Past Outlooks
Surges with Sunday 66
March 17, 2025
Hoey fired a six-under 66 in the final round of The PLAYERS Championship to finish in a share of 33rd place.
ANALYSIS
Hoey bounced back from a third-round 78 by tying for the low round of the day Sunday that was highlighted by an eagle and six birdies to go along with two bogeys. It could've been a much better week had he not lost over seven strokes on the greens as he led the field for the week in SG: Off-the-tee. Hoey currently sits 134th in the FedExCup Standings with his best result being T25 at PGA National.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hoey's maiden Korn Ferry Tour victory arrived not long after he began the 2023 season with top-10 results in half of his first 10 outings, eventually winning the Visit Knoxville Open in late May. The former University of Southern California standout becomes a PGA Tour rookie at 28 years old, and his patience could pay off in a big way if the driver continues to cooperate. He paced the entire KFT in total driving and ranked fourth in par-5 scoring throughout the 2023 campaign, but the putter remains a concern.
