The top of the ladder
The fifteen biggest cheques of the week took $7,047,500 between them, against $2,981,819 shared by the other 58 players paid.
The 73 cheques above come to $10,029,319 between them. We hold 138 players for the week in all, so 65 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.
