#5 - Ollie Schniederjans
The Georgia Tech graduate notched five top-10s this year, including a victory at the Digital Ally Open. Earlier this year, Schniederjans tried to earn enough money via TOUR sponsor exemptions to qualify for membership, but failed to earn status that way. After re-focusing his efforts on the Web.com Tour only, though, he played well.
The 23-year-old has the same team in place that he’s had since high school, and relying on what got him to the TOUR in the first place will prove to be beneficial for Schniederjans. Ollie is definitely one to watch on this years tour.
