    Woods first athlete with $1 billion in earnings
    11 hours, 34 minutes ago

    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.

    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.

    LeBron once said he wanted to be a billionaire athlete. Pretty sure he said he wanted to be the first too.

    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.
