BILLIE JEAN KING
TENNIS
NET WORTH: $25 MILLION

When we are talking about tennis legends, without a doubt, the name Billie Jean King is always one of the top options we all would hear. She’s one of the top athletes of the ’90s, thanks to her 39 Grand Slam titles— 11 in mixed doubles, 12 in singles, and 16 in women’s doubles. Many experts would agree that she is a strong contender for the title of the Greatest Female Athlete in Tennis of All-Time, and she was introduced to the International Tennis Hall of Fame class of 1987.

Aside from her glorious career on the field, Billie Jean is known for pushing gender equality not only in the field of tennis but also in our communities as well. We have to give the lady a huge credit for all the effort she put into the game and her advocacies in general.
