NET WORTH: $40 MILLION

Golf is a safe haven for any women athletes, and Annika Sörenstam made full use of that fact to her advantage. Annika Sörenstam was born on October 9, 1970, in Brühl, Sweden. Since 2006, Sörenstam has held both U.S. and Swedish citizenship. Over the course of her spectacular career, she tallied around 90 international tournament wins, which places her on top of the leaderboards when it comes to the most wins made by a female golfer in history.

She’s widely regarded as one of the top female golfers in the history of the sport. Aside from that, she also had 72 LPGA tournament wins under her belt, which includes ten majors. All of this gave her the credit of holding the 1st place when it comes to career earnings with around $22.5 million in total while playing fewer games than the 2nd placer, Karrie Webb.
