Template:Short description Script error: No such module "infobox".Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". Francisco "Frankie" Miñoza (born 29 December 1959) is a Filipino professional golfer.

Miñoza has played extensively in Asia, winning a number of tournaments on the leading Asian and Japanese tours in addition to many lesser events on the local circuits, especially in the Philippines and Malaysia. In 1990 he won three times on the Asia Golf Circuit and topped the tour's Order of Merit.[1][2] He spent most of the following years, and had his most notable successes, on the Japan Golf Tour.

In 1998 Minoza featured in the top 50 of the Official World Golf Ranking having recorded several top finishes in Japan, including a victory in the Asia Circuit co-sanctioned Kirin Open.[3] He also won three other tournaments on the Asia Circuit, and captured the Order of Merit for the second time.[4][5]

In 2005, after losing his Japanese tour card, he joined the Asian Tour for the first time since its formal establishment in 1995. He finished 27th on the Asian money list to retain his card and also regained his Japan Golf Tour card by finishing second at the qualifying school. In 2007 he won his second Philippine Open at the age of 46 to claim his first Asian Tour title.

In November 2010, Miñoza earned his 2011 Champions Tour card by finishing second at qualifying school.
