In April 2018, Rodríguez won the Web.com Tour United Leasing & Finance Championship. He ended the 2018 season with enough money to qualify for the 2019 PGA Tour. He made three of his first five cuts on the PGA Tour during the 2019 season, but finished the season 177th in the points list, necessitating a return to the Korn Ferry Tour for its 2020 season.

Rodríguez had two wins on the PGA Tour Latinoamérica in 2017 and led the tour's Order of Merit, earning him a return to the Web.com Tour for 2018, this time with full status.

In 2013, Rodríguez predominantly played on PGA Tour Latinoamérica 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 Rodríguez 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, Rodríguez achieved a further four wins on the Mexican Tour taking his career haul to a record of 13 wins on the tour.

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

2011 was a very successful season for Rodríguez 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, Rodríguez also won two events on the Mexican Tour taking him to a total of four wins for the season.

In 2009, Rodríguez 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.

Rodríguez 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.

Rodríguez sent most of his pay home to Irapuato, allowing his parents to build two homes on their piece of property. In 2006, at the age of 26, he returned to Irapuato, Mexico and began caddying again at Club de Golf Santa Margarita. Rodríguez ultimately met Alfonso Vallejo Esquivel, a wealthy club member, who saw his talent and offered to buy Rodríguez a membership at the course. Esquivel ultimately staked Rodríguez and allowed him to get his start as a pro golfer on the Mexican Tour in 2007.
