P.S. Not a surprise that Tiger Woods is #1 in earnings, But a surprise is #2. Another golfer, Phil Mickelson. I just do not see many of his commercials on TV. Maybe I am just not paying attention.
#3 is LaBron James. Not a surprise. I think very soon James will be #1 because he is only 24. And if he wins a NBA title he will for sure pass Tiger or be there with Tiger.
Glad to see Kobe moving up the ladder in earnings. But I still think business folks shy away from Bryant because of the court stuff a few years ago.
This is real interesting information. To me baseball guys like Ryan Howard who is young and intelligent should be farther up the earnings chart. Maybe in time he will.
But keep in mind Tiger is just 33 years old. He is still in his prime as a golfer. He has a lot of years to be on top in the golf game. After all look at golf great Arnold Palmer who is still making big $$ in endorsements and he is going on 80 years.
There is not a lot of boxers on the list. I know Floyd Mayweather does a few commercials but where is Oscar or Bernard Hopkins and other boxers? G.C.
