1,530 Holes - 1973 - Lebanon, TN - Raymond Lasater - Guiness Record

The Champion Golfer of the year gets the Claret Jug and the first place prize money, second place gets the silver salver and the second place prize money and the leading amateur (who makes the cut) gets the silver medal but no prize money. The rest of the field get their allocation of the prize money, depending on how they finished. Those who missed the cut still get a share of the purse, but it's not very much.

Lee Westwood, the first player to earn a top-3 in each major before winning one of them, has played in 60. Sergio Garcia and Steve Stricker have played 58, and Luke Donald has participated in 39.
