Prize Money Splits
(N.B. Please note final figures may vary)

For each category (Pro / Am) here is the deal :

Main:
Winner:            40%
Runner-up:       15%

Semi-finalist (1): 7.5%
Semi-finalist (2): 7.5%

Consolation:
Winner:            15%
Finalist:             7.5%

Last Chance:
Winner:             7.5%

If we imagine 50 entrants in the Pro flight, and 40 in the Amateur, that gives us stake money of £8,500 (Pro) and £2,000 (Amateur). If the added prize money is added roughly pro rata, that would make roughly £10,000 and £2,500.

That would translate to prizes of :

bullet

PRO: (Main) £4,000: £1,500: £750: £750; (Consolation) £1,500: £750
with £750 held over for Monday

bullet

AMATEUR: (Main) £1,000: £375: £190: £190; (Consolation) £375: £190
