If Lebron only made $23 mil in endorsements, I'd say he's underpaid.

That's his salary. He made 54 in endorsements

federer with an insane $60M in endorsements.

Phil's agent/business team must be insanely good.

Does LeBron pass up the soccer players after the NBA TV deal money kicks in?

Federer endorsements are insane.

So tennis, golf and basketball still have higher endorsements than soccer stars...and these are supposed to be the most famous men on earth?

Novak Djokovic had the endorsement of donkey cheese seeing as how he bought the entire world's supply

This is stupid. Cam newton got a one time signing bonus and that's why his "salary" is so high but we all know how nfl contracts work. You get the signing bonus and then the team keeps you on books for 3 years and then renegotiates.

The entire continent of Africa probably spends as much money on professional soccer apparel as a small US market spends on basketball, baseball, or football.

I'm shocked no baseball players are on it

I feel ignorant on this, but how do you differentiate "pay" from "salary/winnings" for things like tennis and golf? In team sports, you're paid by the team/owner. Whose payroll is Federer/Mickelson/etc. on?

Too many non-athletic white guys on that list.

I would like to see a list of earnings of MLB players based on endorsements. I don't follow MLB, but no big-time marketable guys come to mind.

GOAT Sports to be a top player financially
1. NBA
2. PGA
3. Soccer (Knocked down a few pegs due to absurd European Taxes)
4. MLB

Jordan Spieth made $52 MM at 22 years old. Now I see why some people on here hate him for no reason

None of them pay their taxes anyway

Endorsements. Don't worry Bryce Harper is about to blow this list apart.
