Listowel's Corey Conners is playing for the chance to earn status on the Web.com Tour.

Conners is in competing in the 2015 Freedom 55 Financial Championship at Highland Country Club in London. He finished in the top 60 players on the Order of Merit through the Cape Breton Celtic Classic.

The top player at the Freedom 55 Financial Championship earns status on the Web.com Tour; the top five earn conditional status; those ranked 6-10 get an exemption into the final stage of the Web.com Tour Q-School; and those ranked 11-20 get an exemption into the second stage of the Web.com Tour Q-School.

There are 11 Canadian players who can potentially win the Freedom 55 Financial Canadian Player of the Year and a $25,000 prize. Conners would need to win the tournament to earn the award.

Round 1 of the Freedom 55 Financial Championship begins Thursday.
