Re: Canadian Open July 8-17 questions
From the handbook:
1603. Cash Prizes:
a) no winner should receive more than one cash award for which he is eligible. The award may be one full cash prize (if he is a clear winner) or parts of two or more cash prizes (if he wins tied with others). Such special prizes as "upset" or "best game" may be excepted from this rule.
b) a clear winner of more than one cash prize should be awarded the greatest prize.
c) tied winners of place prizes, or tied winners (in the same class) of class prizes, should be awarded all the cash prizes involved, summed and divided equally, but no more than one cash prize (in order of amount) should go into the division for each winner.
d) if winners of class prizes tie with winners of place prizes, all the cash prizes involved should be summed and divided equally among the tied winners, no more than one cash prize, in order of amount, to go into the division for each winner, unless the class-prize winners would receive more cash by dividing only the class prizes.
e) an announced class prize must be awarded even if only one player in that class completes his schedule of play.
Seems pretty clear to me: The case in question is covered and it calls for both prizes (U2200 and U1400) to be added together and divided among all the tied players.
