Tiger Woods is now officially a billionaire
Woods recently refused to be a part of the Saudi-funded LIV Golf Series, which reportedly offered him a ‘nine digits’ deal. Lots of players took the offer and made millions of dollars worth of deals overnight. Tiger Woods, on the other hand, does not require a new league to become wealthy, as the golfer is now a billionaire, according to Forbes.
Woods is among the highest-earning athletes in the world with a salary of over $1.7 billion along with endorsements and other brand deals. Forbes has estimated Woods’ net worth to be around $1 billion on the basis of his lifetime earnings. However, it is estimated that less than 10% of what Woods earns comes directly from golf. The major money he makes is through enormous brand endorsements with companies like Monster Energy, TaylorMade, Rolex, and especially his oldest endorsement since 1996, Nike.
