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
T4 in Japan
Hoey fired an eight-under 63 on Sunday at the Baycurrent Classic to finish 14-under and tied for fourth.
ANALYSIS
Hoey ranked second among the field in SG: Off-the-Tee during Sunday's final round at Yokohama Country Club, tallying eight birdies to zero bogeys in the process. He ultimately finished the week top-10 in each of SG: Approach, SG: Around-the-Green and scrambling as well, ascending to 91st in the FedExCup Fall standings with the T4 result in Japan.

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.
