<p><br>Nick Watney's victory at the 2012 Barclays has netted the golfer $1.44 million for his 10-under victory.</p>
<p>The total purse at the tournament was $8 million. Here is the payout for the rest of the top five.</p>
<p>2) Brandt Snedeker - $864,000<br>T3) Sergio Garcia - $464,000<br>T3) Dustin Johnson - $464,000<br>T5) Graham DeLaet - $281,000<br>T5) Brian Harman - $281,000<br>T5) Louis Oosthuizen - $281,000<br>T5) Lee Westwood - $281,000</p>
<p>The only Boston-area golfer who made the cut was James Driscoll, and he finished last out of the 75 golfers with a total score of 295. For his efforts though, he was paid out $15,200.</p>
<p>Outside of Watney, the golfer that helped himself the most was the Canadian DeLaet. DeLaet finished Sunday's final round very strong, going 6-under on the day to move up the leaderboard 38 spots into his tie for fifth place.</p>
