Tiger Woods back on top as sport’s best-paid athlete

[dipsydoodle]

Tiger Woods is once again the world's best-paid athlete after reclaiming golf's number one ranking, according to Forbes.

Woods had total earnings of $78 million (£50.34m) over the past year - $65 million (£42m) in endorsements and the remainder from appearance and prize money, Forbes said in its annual sporting survey.

The American returned to the top of golf's rankings in March for the first time since October 2010.

A number of sponsors had abandoned Woods after he was involved in an adultery scandal that broke in 2009 but sportswear company Nike was among those that stood by him.

Bill Clinton is too. I don't agree that either are given that their private lives have got sfa to do with their occupations. I suppose having said that at least Woods didn't do it while he was working.
