Golf Digest recently published an article on GolfDigest.com projecting the career earnings in total official money and endorsements by Tiger Woods to reach a billion by 2010. Woods has already earned well over $546 million dollars and will likely reach the billion dollar mark by at least 2013 as projected by financial experts. The experts at Golf Digest feel that Tiger will join the club of 691 billionaires worldwide by year 2010. Not only has Tiger made himself the richest athlete in history, he has created huge wealth for all other PGA Tour members. With Tiger-sized purses from greater TV Ratings and huge crowds, regular Tour pros, even some unknowns can become millionaires in any given Tour year. For example, the 50th player on the Tour money list last season, Ben Crane, made over 3.3 million dollars.
