2017 Masters -- Prize Money

edit

During the third round of the Masters (Saturday April 8th), the purse and individual prizes for the 2017 Masters was revealed by the Augusta National Golf Club.

Announced Total Purse is $ 11,000,000 | 1st Prize is $1,980,000

If the remaining 51 pros complete Sunday's final round, then the total actual -PAID- purse would be $ 10,543,720.

The pros who do not make the 36-hole cut receive $ 10,000 each (unofficial money, not included in a player's season total)

So explain how a tie for first puts the next guy fifth. Consider: add 1+1, 2+1, 3+1, 2+2, & 4+1. How many different solutions are there? By the "fifth" argument, there are 5. That is preposterous. TREKphiler any time you're ready, Uhura 02:59, 30 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

You are wrong - look at any scoreboard for a golf tournament.Tewapack (talk) 03:14, 30 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
That is an appeal to authority, not a reason. And I see User:Phinumu has decided to violate the WP:3RR rather than even discuss the issue. TREKphiler any time you're ready, Uhura 04:52, 30 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
We have already explained it. When four players are ahead of player X on the leaderboard, player X is in fifth. When eight players are ahead of him, he's in ninth. When 36 are ahead of him, he's in 37th. pʰeːnuːmuː →‎ pʰiːnyːmyː → ‎ɸinimi → ‎fiɲimi 13:18, 30 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
You disappoint me. I'd always thought that when I had a handicap of 7, I was the 14th best amateur golfer in the world (those ahead of me having handicaps of +6, +5, +4, +3, +2, +1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) Nigej (talk) 15:21, 30 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
