Born in Buenos Aires, Ruiz worked as a caddie in Buenos Aires, before turning professional in 1951.
During his career, Ruiz won the Argentine Professional Ranking four times, and competed in seven major championships, appearing five times in the British Open, from 1958 to 1961 and 1968, and twice in the Masters Tournament in 1962 and 1965. In 1958, he missed out on being in a playoff for the British Open title, when he had a triple bogey at the last hole at Royal Lytham & St Annes to finish tied for 5th place, three strokes off the leaders. A year later, at Muirfield, he finished in a tie for 9th.
In 1960, on the European circuit, Ruiz was second in the French Open, and a year later finished fourth in the German Open. He had most success in South America, where he won the Argentine Open in 1957 and 1959, the Colombian Open and the Uruguay Open in 1958, and the Argentine PGA Championship on six occasions, in addition to many other regional opens. He was also second in the Brazil Open in 1957 and 1958, the Argentine Open in 1960 and 1973, and the Colombian Open in 1972.
Ruiz represented Argentina in the World Cup on eight occasions between 1957 and 1969, and was runner up in the team competition alongside Roberto de Vicenzo in 1964.
