The top of the ladder
The fifteen biggest cheques of the week took $4,314,000 between them, against $885,000 shared by the other thirteen players paid.
The 28 cheques above come to $5,199,000 between them. We hold 30 players for the week in all, so two 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.
