Tiger Woods, who is tied with golf legend Sam Snead for the most PGA Tour event wins in history at 82, is now officially a billionaire, according to Forbes.
According to the magazine’s earnings update for the golf superstar, Woods has made around $1.7 billion in his 27-year golf career. He raked in the money from his salary, endorsements and other various incomes. Less than 10% of his career earnings comes from his golf salary.
This all equates to Woods’s now $1 billion net worth. He becomes just the third athlete in history to officially be named a billionaire, after LeBron James and Michael Jordan. James just reached this milestone last week.
