The Golf Digest claims that Tiger Woods made a whopping $769,440,709 from 1996 to 2007! We can’t even wrap our minds around that kind of money. Moreover, the magazine predicted he would pass one billion by 2010. But in 2009, Forbes confirmed that the legend was the world’s first athlete to earn over a billion dollars, after the $10 million bonus he received for the FedEx Cup title.
