Tiger Woods has topped the Forbes list of highest paid athletes for the last 5 or 6 years and I've heard that he is predicted to be the first billionaire athlete. Click the link below to see the complete list. Here are the top ten for 2005:
1. Tiger Woods...$80m
2. Michael Schumacher..$80m
3. Peyton Manning, $45m
4. Michael Jordon, $35m
5. Shaquille Oneil, $32M
6. Kevin Garnet, $30m
7. Andre Agassi, $28m
8. David Beckham, $28m
9 Alex Rodriguez, $26m
10. Kobe Bryant, $26m
Here are a few surprises:
Arnold Palmer - $20M (Retired golfer)
Champ Bailey - $20M (NFL)
Lance Armstrong - $19M
Oscar De La Hoya - $22M
