McCoy's ancestors originally came to the United States from Ireland in the early 1900s, settling first in Pennsylvania before moving to Iowa. He claims his love of golf came from his father who he would travel with on occasion back to the hills of South Armagh in Ireland, to visit relatives and sample some of the golf courses around the mountains of Mourne. He played college golf at Wichita State University.

Among McCoy's golf honors is also a 2009 Amateur Cup win in Iowa.

McCoy captained the 2023 Walker Cup team to victory over Great Britain and Ireland.
