Eighteen players left Augusta National having made six figures (or in the case of winner Bubba Watson, seven) off the 2012 Masters, but Chicago-area golfers Luke Donald and Steve Stricker were not among them. But not many tears will be shed for the two who, despite finishing well off the lead, still made a pretty penny over the weekend.
At +3 and and tied for 32nd place, Donald was given a check for $45,280, about $11,000 less than the prize for those who finished at +2. Stricker tied for 47th place at +7 and left Augusta with an extra $22,560, a little less than $4,000 from the next prize.
2012 Masters champion Bubba Watson took home $1,440,000 and runner-up Louis Oosthuizen received $864,000. Here is the full list of winnings for the 2012 Masters.
