The fifteen biggest cheques of the week took $7,134,000 between them, against $3,011,102 shared by the other 59 players paid.
The 74 cheques above come to $10,145,102 between them. We hold 132 players for the week in all, so 58 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.
