Professional career

Rodriguez turned professional in 2007 and mainly played on the Mexican Tour during 2008, although he did make three starts on the Canadian Tour making the cut in all three. He achieved his first professional win in 2008 winning the event hosted in Puebla on the Mexican Tour.

In 2009, Rodriguez played an increased schedule on the Canadian Tour but failed to record a win in any events during the season. His form on the Canadian Tour improved in 2010 where, despite a winless season, he achieved three top-three finishes in just eight starts. His good form in 2010 was also apparent on the Mexican Tour in 2010 where he achieved four victories.

2011 was a very successful season for Rodriguez on the Canadian Tour the where he won consecutive events at the Mexican PGA Championship and Times Colonist Island Savings Open and went on to win the Tour's Order of Merit. During the 2011 season, Rodriguez also won two events on the Mexican Tour taking him to a total of four wins for the season.

In 2012, Rodriguez was granted membership on the inaugural season of PGA Tour Latinoamerica though his performances on the Mexican Tour and also played a reduced schedule on the PGA Tour Canada. Despite not winning on either of the two development tours Rodriguez was able to win another two events on the Mexican Tour during 2012.

In 2013, Rodriguez predominantly played on the PGA Tour Latinoamerica and achieved his first victory at the Roberto De Vicenzo Invitational Copa NEC which was quickly followed up with a second victory at the Arturo Calle Colombian Classic. These two victories helped Rodriguez to a second place finish on the Tour's Order of Merit for 2013 which earned his playing card for the Web.com Tour in 2014. During 2013, Rodriguez achieved a further four wins on the Mexican Tour taking his career haul to a record of 13 wins on the tour.
