The top of the ladder
The fifteen biggest cheques of the week took $6,133,498 between them, against $2,667,245 shared by the other 61 players paid.
The 76 cheques above come to $8,800,743 between them. We hold 119 players for the week in all, so 43 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.
