Forbes: Tiger Woods is first athlete to reach $1 billion
It's good to be Tiger Woods. Forbes.com is reporting that Woods is the first athlete to reach $1 billion in earnings, beating out Michael Jordan and Michael Schumacher.
Woods earned more than $10.5 million in giant cardboard checks this year on the PGA Tour and added another $10 million last weekend by winning the FedEx Cup. According to Forbes, that little bonus was enough to push Woods over the $1 billion mark.
I remember a Sports Illustrated article about ten years ago postulating that Wood's would eventually become the first athlete to amass one billion dollars. Interesting to see this came to fruition, as Tiger continues to rake in the money from endorsements.

Notice I said I can make it up...I don't believe it...well except the part where I said they can dunk better, run faster, dance better...and probably have larger penises than most whites...
