The 2015 Web.com Tour Regular Season gets underway next week at the Panama Claro Championship, and every player in the field will be eager to start the season on a high note.

The top 25 money leaders from last year's Web.com Tour Finals who did not earn a PGA TOUR card will be fully exempt on this year's Web.com Tour, as will all additional players from the top 75 of the 2014 Web.com Tour Regular Season money list that did not earn a TOUR card through the Finals.

Last season's Order of Merit winners from PGA TOUR Canada (Joel Dahmen), PGA TOUR Latinoamerica (Julian Etulian), and PGA TOUR China (Hao Tong Li) will be fully exempt on the 2015 Web.com Tour, as will Web.com Tour Qualifying Tournament medalist Brad Fritsch.

In all, 54 Web.com Tour members are assured of being fully exempt for the 2015 season. Regardless of how they play in the early portion of the season, these 54 don't need to worry about the mid-season priority reshuffles that will impact other Web.com Tour members this season.

Of these 54 fully exempt members, who is most likely to make an impact throughout the 2015 season? Here are 10 fully exempt players to watch on this year's Web.com Tour (listed alphabetically, not in any particular order):

Brad Fritsch. There's no question that the soft-spoken Canadian has the ability to succeed at the highest levels of professional golf; he finished in the top 13 in three of his last four TOUR events of 2013-14 to place No. 151 in the FedExCup Standings, just short of conditional status for 2014-15. After a disappointing showing at the Web.com Tour Finals, Fritsch channeled his frustration masterfully at the Web.com Tour Qualifying Tournament, which he won by seven shots to earn fully exempt status for 2015. The 37-year-old last played the Web.com Tour full-time in 2012, finishing No. 18 on the money list, and another strong season appears to be in the cards this time around.

The 2015 Web.com Tour's 21-event regular season gets underway Jan. 29 at the Panama Claro Championship in Panama City, Panama. The slate includes seven international events and 14 domestic events.

The Web.com Tour makes three stops in the Carolinas - May 11-17 at the BMW Charity Pro Am at Greenville, S.C, May 25-31 at the Rex Hospital Open in Raleigh (TPC at Wakefield Plantation) and Sept. 14-20 at the Chiquita Classic in Davidson, N.C. (River Run Plantation)
