In Response To: Some data (Tom Keith)

I think I know who made the even-money ("previous winner cashes") bet: Rip Van Winkle.

From 1998 to 2006 (8 years), a previous winner cashed in the tournament only 3 times.

From 2007 to 2012 (6 years), a previous winner cashed every year, with a total of 12 cashes (average of 2 per year) and a top of 4 (2012).
