*Few athletes have matched the financial and competitive success Tiger Woods has built over the course of his career. Forbes now estimates the golf superstar’s net worth at $1.5 billion, placing him among a select group of billionaire athletes still active in professional sports.
The report stated Woods has generated roughly $1.8 billion before taxes since entering the professional game in the 1990s. That figure makes him the second active athlete to reach billionaire status after LeBron James.
Long before becoming one of the richest figures in sports, Woods established himself as one of golf’s defining players. Since making his professional debut in 1996 at age 20, he has accumulated 106 victories worldwide and captured 15 major championships during a career that reshaped the modern era of golf.
His dominance on the PGA Tour also translated into record breaking earnings. Woods won the tour’s highest career prize money total at $121 million and continues to rank among the sport’s top earners in 2025, according to Forbes.

Away from tournament play, Woods has continued building his fortune through sponsorship agreements, investments, business interests, and property assets.
When discussing the accomplishments that stand out most to him, Woods highlighted the consistency he maintained over the years.
“I think the consistency in which I played, that’s something I was very proud of. I played at a high level for a long period of time. I won my fair share of tournaments, I lost my share of tournaments, but I was proud of the work that I put in to keep myself there and keep trying to get better,” he said, per Golf Monthly.
