The top of the ladder
The fifteen biggest cheques of the week took $283,259 between them, against $5,025 shared by the other one players paid.
The sixteen cheques above come to $288,284 between them. We hold 22 players for the week in all, so six 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.
