# Ollie Schniederjans

Oliver Frank Schniederjans (born June 15, 1993) is an American professional golfer. He was a three-time NCAA All-American at Georgia Tech. He is a former number one ranked amateur golfer in the world.

## Amateur career

Schniederjans was born in Dallas, Texas, to Oliver and Linda Schniederjans. He lived briefly in North Andover, Massachusetts, and grew up in Powder Springs, Georgia. He graduated in 2010 from Harrison High School in Kennesaw, Georgia, and played college golf at Georgia Tech.
As a junior, Schniederjans won five of six events leading up to the NCAA Division I Championship, where he finished runner-up after a three-hole playoff. He won the 2014 Mark H. McCormack Medal after reaching number one in the World Amateur Golf Ranking, a position he held for 41 consecutive weeks. A two-time Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) Player of the Year, Schniederjans was named first-team All-American following his junior and senior seasons and played for the U.S. Palmer Cup team in 2014 and 2015.
He played his first PGA Tour event at the 2015 Valspar Championship, missing the cut. As the McCormack winner, he earned exemptions into the 2015 U.S. Open and the 2015 Open Championship, after which he turned professional.

## Professional career

Schniederjans made his professional debut at the 2015 RBC Canadian Open. In June 2016, he won for the first time as a professional, at the Air Capital Classic on the Web.com Tour, and finished the season having gained status on the PGA Tour for 2017. He retained his place on the PGA Tour for three seasons, his best result being a runner-up finish in the Wyndham Championship during his rookie season, before dropping back down to the second tier tour in 2020, where he remained through 2024.
In December 2024, Schniederjans finished in a tie for fourth place in the LIV Golf promotions event to miss out on the one spot available in the league, but he did gain exemptions into all the Asian Tour International Series tournaments in 2025. He later accepted an offer to be a reserve player on the 2025 LIV Golf League. In February 2025, he won the International Series India by four strokes from Bryson DeChambeau in his debut on the Asian Tour International Series.
