While attending Needham B. Broughton High School, he won the 1973 NCHSAA Men's Golf State Championship.
Hoch was a member of the golf team at Wake Forest University before graduating in 1978.
In 1978, Hoch reached the final of the U.S. Amateur, losing 5 & 4 to John Cook.
His good play earned him membership for top international team competitions like the 1978 Eisenhower Trophy and the 1979 Walker Cup.
The Americans won both events.
His achievements in 1978 led to an invitation to the 1979 Masters Tournament where he tied for 34th place, the second low amateur only behind Bobby Clampett.
Hoch turned professional in 1979 after competing in the U.S. Amateur.
Hoch has won several tournaments, including the Western Open, the Ford Championship at Doral, the Heineken Dutch Open and the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic.

He also won the Vardon Trophy for lowest scoring average in 1986.
He has featured in the top 20 of the Official World Golf Ranking.
At the 1987 PGA Championship, Hoch three-putted the 18th hole on Sunday from inside of ten feet.
A two-putt would have secured a playoff spot for him.
Hoch is also well known for his infamous quote regarding playing in The Open Championship at the "home of golf" at St Andrews.
Hoch referred to this course, considered hallowed ground by most golfers around the world, as "the worst piece of mess" he had ever seen.
Partly due to his Open Championship criticism Hoch has been characterized as an "ugly American."
He also has runner-up finishes at the 1987 Dunlop Phoenix Tournament, 1994 Casio World Open on the Japan Golf Tour, 1995 New Zealand Open on the Australasian Tour, and the 1996 Dutch Open.
Hoch is the rare American golfer who has criticized the Ryder Cup.
Hoch is widely known for missing a two-foot-long putt that would have won the 1989 Masters Tournament on the first playoff hole, which he lost to Nick Faldo on the next hole.
In 1989, Hoch said that he was "really hurt" after being named "Least Popular Golfer" in a poll of Tour players conducted by the Dallas Times Herald.
However he has played extensively abroad and done fairly well, with three victories on the Japan Golf Tour, a victory at European Tour's 1995 Dutch Open, and multiple victories on the Korean Tour.
Before his participation in the 2002 event he described the Ryder Cup as "overrated" and thought that the competition had gotten too "inflammatory."
In May 2007, Hoch won his first Champions Tour event, the FedEx Kinko's Classic.
In February 2008, he won his second and third events in consecutive weeks.
In April 2019, Hoch won at the age of 63 the Bass Pro Shops Legends of Golf with Tom Pernice Jr.. This first win in 11 years made him the oldest winner on the Champions Tour.
Hoch's record held until October 2021, when Bernhard Langer broke it at the Dominion Energy Charity Classic.
