Cantlay's '11 Prize Money (If He Were A Pro): Roughly $456,297
/Jim McCabe has several interesting notes from the last week, including more comments from Luke Donald about the Canadian Open setup, Brad Faxon gearing up for his Champions debut in a few weeks and this on Patrick Cantlay's continued great play.
With a 68-69 weekend, the young man finished joint ninth while making his fourth cut in as many starts since mid-June. All he’s done in that time is play 16 rounds, shoot in the 60s five times, fire 72 or better 11 times, and post a scoring average of 69.375.
Of course, he hasn’t made a dime, being an amateur. His prize money would have been roughly $456,297, but Cantlay has insisted many times that he’s intent on going back to UCLA and that it’s all about experience.
He’ll tee it up next at the Western Amateur in early August.
Remember it's not possible to compute the exact number because prize money is divied up to exclude Cantlay's winnings.
