The top of the ladder
The fifteen biggest cheques of the week took $1,343,488 between them, against $87,213 shared by the other nine players paid.
The 24 cheques above come to $1,430,701 between them. We hold 36 players for the week in all, so twelve 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.
