Top Ten - Here We Come

Current All Time Money Leader - Jamie Gold
Current All Time Money Leader - Jamie Gold
With a $9,119,517 first prize, the winner of this event will instantly find himself in the top 10 on the all-time money list. However, there are few players who, with a win in November, will find themselves even higher on that list.

Dean Hamrick, should he win the title, would wind up ninth on the all-time money list, whereas Kelly Kim, Scott Montgomery, and Ylon Schwartz would each squeeze into the #8 spot on the all-time money list.

David "Chino" Rheem, having already earned $706,494 in his career, would catapult himself into the #7 spot should he be crowned the world champion in November.
