Frankie Miñoza (born 29 December 1959) is a Filipino professional golfer.
He has won a number of events in Asia and Japan, but has spent most of his prime, and had his most notable success, on the Japan Golf Tour. In 1998 he was featured in the top 50 of the Official World Golf Rankings.
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.
