The top of the ladder
The fifteen biggest cheques of the week took $2,258,494 between them, against $412,683 shared by the other 22 players paid.
The 37 cheques above come to $2,671,177 between them. We hold 53 players for the week in all, so sixteen of them took no money: a missed cut, a withdrawal or an amateur place. A place written as T4 is a tie, and everyone tied for it was paid the same.

The rest of the golf money
Golf tournament prize money carries the roll of honour for every event we hold, and golf earnings ranks the players by what they have won across their careers. Where a field is paid for every round it survives rather than once at the end, see Champions League prize money, and for a single event that pays a whole field on one night, World Championship darts prize money.
