There are a total of 156 players who qualify to play in the British Open golf tournament. The players who place in the top 70 positions will qualify to play for the final two rounds.
9 different teams have entered the tournament ranked #1 and were undefeated and won the tournament, with UCLA doing it 4 times for a total of 12 times this has happened.
The total purse for the tournament was $7,500,000. Graeme McDowell received $1,350,000 as champion.
The winner gets 18% of the total purse, then the rest is dispersed on a sliding scale based on the total purse and the finishing position of the player. Ties are a different story. Let's say that three players tie for second. The total prize money for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place is added together, then divided equally amongst those three players. This is why finishing in a solo place pays more than finishing in a tie.

Since the pro players are paired with amateurs (the celebrities) the combined scores of the two players are added for the total score to win the tournament.
