Buzz up! 16 PrintNEW YORK (AP)—Forbes says Tiger Woods has become the first athlete to surpass $1 billion in career earnings.
The magazine estimates that golf’s top-ranked player crested the plateau when he earned $10 million for winning the FedEx Cup on Sunday.
Forbes reported on its Web site on Tuesday that Woods entered 2009 having earned $895 million since he joined the PGA Tour in 1996. Prize money, appearance fees, endorsement fees, bonuses and his golf course design business were calculated to have pushed him over $1 billion.
The magazine says former NBA great Michael Jordan and former Formula One driver Michael Schumacher, at $800 million and $700 million, respectively, are Woods’ closest compe ion in career earnings.http://sports.yahoo.com/golf/pga/new...v=ap&type=lgns
So, LeBron, you ain't gonna be the first billionaire athlete ever then. But, you will get most league rules change to serve your handshaking needs.
one word
are you the new police around here?
I think it has more to do with the fact that this is the Spurs forum. If he was trolling, I'd understand. This is just normal news.
sooooooooooooooo
where do you think it should go
takes about basketball players
and what they make
also starting duncan is not going to make as much as mj
Yo, Tiga, Imma let you finish. But LeBron is the best athlete EVER!!! EVER!!!
So ducks is lolling because Lebron James will only be the second athlete to make a billion dollars?
LeBron once said he wanted to be a billionaire athlete. Pretty sure he said he wanted to be the first too.
Ah. Still makes screaming "in your face" to a guy with hundreds of millions of dollars kind of re ed.
True. But, we all know Ducks has a problem.

Re ation doesn't seem to be a problem for ducks.
im certain if you add business earnings MJ will succeed tiger
where else schu didnt he retire for how many years now....if he was still racing he could command around 50-100m a year from ferrari....
actually that was seven words, but it's understandable since you have the mental capacity of a re ed chimp.
MJ's ex takin' half + $1 notwithstanding.
tee, hee.
his le is one word
dumbass
Lebron isn't even close to the best athlete ever.
maybe not know. But by the end of his career he will be the greatest athlete ever!!!
If he would funnel 1 million my way I promise to make constant threads of whatever news I find of him.
the prize for the FedEx Cup is 10 million dollars?
what the ? one tournament, one cup, = 10 million prize?
The fedex cup is a point system championship that ac ulates throught the season. Phil Mickelson won the tournament, but Woods got second place and won the cup through points.
Great for him, damn its crazy he is making so much god damn money and there are people on the streets begging for 50 cents ( IN SAN ANTONIO)
