The top of the ladder
The fifteen biggest cheques of the week took $4,928,001 between them, against $1,443,482 shared by the other 44 players paid.
The 59 cheques above come to $6,371,483 between them. We hold 78 players for the week in all, so nineteen 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.
