The fifteen biggest cheques of the week took $5,812,000 between them, against $2,188,000 shared by the other fifteen players paid.
The 30 cheques above come to $8,000,000 between them. We hold 30 players for the week in all, so no 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.
