Professional golf's leading players have cashed in
handsomely and directly through their tournament competition. A
compilation prepared for the upcoming annual edition of the book,
The World of Professional Golf, detailing every sanctioned professional tour tournament, reveals that the top 50 career money-winners have collected $1,117,669,572. Tiger Woods ($55,452,437), Ernie Els ($49,822,769) and Vijay Singh ($46,554,712) head the list. Remarkable when you consider that Arnold Palmer was in his 14th season when he became the first player to win $1 million on the PGA Tour.
