Inbee Park is a powerhouse in the pro golfing world. The South Korean golfer has spent the last decade making a name for herself in the sport, with her first major win in the U.S. Women’s Open at age 19. From there, she went on to win seven major championships and earned over $15 million in prize money.
Since the beginning of her professional career in 2007 till now, Park has accumulated a net worth of $9 million from all of her competitions and endorsement deals.
Allyson Felix – $8 Million
Allyson Felix is set apart as the only female track and field star to have six gold medals. Presently, Felix is tied with Merlene Ottey for the most Olympic medals overall (as they both currently hold nine).
Unfortunately, running by itself is not known to be incredibly lucrative. Felix has been fortunate enough to land quite a few endorsement deals which helped her achieve her $8 million net worth.
Jelena Jankovic – $15 Million
Jelena Janković is another recognizable face in the world of women’s tennis. Janković was the first player to hold a number one ranking without having won a major singles tournament. Though she only held the ranking for a week, she did go on to win mixed doubles at Wimbledon in 2007 and continued to rank higher on the list as her career progressed.
Janković has not officially retired but has taken an extended break from tennis since her back surgery in 2017. From her career earnings, she has obtained nearly $20 million in prize money (along with endorsements from Fila and Adidas) which contributes to her total net worth of $15 million.
Eugenie Bouchard – $6 Million
Canadian tennis player, Eugenie Bouchard, first gained public acclaim when she appeared in the 2014 Wimbledon finals, as well as the semi-finals at the US and Australian Opens that same year. Bouchard was also the first female player from Canada to have ranked in the top five for singles.
She has endured a recent downturn in her career, struggling in her rankings, but hopefully, things will turn around for Bouchard. She still has a notable net worth of $6 million.
Madison Keys – $8 Million
Madison Keys turned pro in 2009 and first gained public acclaim when she reached the semi-finals of the Australian Open in 2015. Keys was just a teen at the time, but she went on to reach the quarter-finals at Wimbledon that same year.
Keys has never achieved a major title, but she is presently ranked 16th in the world. Since turning pro at the age of 13, she has $12 million in prize money to her name. And as of 2020, her net worth is estimated to be around $8 million.
