2025 Fantasy Outlook
After finishing the regular season outside of the top 100 in the FedExCup, Hoey switch to a long putter to start the fall and the results followed with six top-25s including four top-10s across seven starts. His ball-striking numbers jump off the page as Scottie Scheffler was the only other golfer to rank in the top 10 in SG: Off-the-Tee and approach in 2025. A bit of a late bloomer having spent five years at the lower level before graduating to the PGA Tour, Hoey looks to be a pretty obvious breakout candidate that still needs to prove that the putting woes are behind him and that he can compete against elite talent. We're betting he will. Read Past Outlooks
T50 in 2026 debut
January 20, 2026
Hoey recorded an even-par 70 on Sunday at the Sony Open in Hawaii to finish four-under and tied for 50th.
ANALYSIS
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.

2026 Golf Draft Kit: Projected Earnings

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.
