Tiger Woods' Billion-Dollar Life

Tiger Woods has officially become a billionaire! Along with Lakers superstar LeBron James and NBA legend Michael Jordan, he recently became only the third billionaire athlete. That's some excellent company! Woods has a net worth of at least $1 billion, according to Forbes. During his prime, he topped Forbes' list of the highest-paid athletes for ten years in a row until 2012. He has won more prize money than any other professional golfer in history, totaling $121 million. Even more impressive is the fact that this billion-dollar milestone was attained without taking a lucrative nine-figure contract to compete on the contentious Saudi-backed LIV Golf Tour. Tiger Woods is one of the highest-paid athletes of all time, so he doesn't mind splashing the cash. He has earned over $1.4 billion since turning pro in 1996. His record-breaking golf career has had its ups and downs, but he is still the highest-paid golfer in the world, which is quite impressive given how difficult golf is.
