the house that golf built

TIGER WOODS...by now, if you do not know that name, you must be a hermit living in the dark reaches of the deep congolese jungle...

but did you know he made us$87 mill (from prizemoney and endorsements) in 2005 (as estimated by FORBES magazine)??? holy kemamma!!!

quoted GOLF DIGEST magazine
In little more than nine seasons as a professional, Woods has earned $66 million in prize money worldwide, some of it as unofficial earnings. Research by Golf Digest revealed that over that same period Woods has earned another $481.8 million in endorsements and appearance fees. Assuming Woods continues on the same earnings trajectory, Golf Digest projects that Woods will reach the $1 billion mark in career earnings by the end of 2010. According to financial experts, Woods' net worth should surpass $1 billion by 2013, if not sooner.



So exactly how much is $1 billion? Consider:

• If a golfer had earned every penny of prize money available on the PGA Tour from 1938 through 1999, he would have made $1 billion.
• $1 billion is more than the combined winnings of the next 70 players on the PGA Tour career money list behind Woods.
• If you spent $100 a minute every minute of every day it would take more than 19 years to deplete $1 billion.
