MARTA MENEGATTI
BEACH VOLLEYBALL
NET WORTH: $1.5 MILLION
Known to be a fierce defender, Marta Menegatti made her professional start in beach volleyball in 2006. She joined the FIVB World Tour for the first time in 2009. She, along with her teammate Greta Cicolari, got the first podium in that competition in 2010. In 2011, she won the European Beach Volleyball Championships, along with Cicolari, and was dubbed the Most Improved Player during her participation in that year’s FIVB World Tour. In 2012, she achieved her highest world ranking in beach volleyball at number 4. In 2015, she finally got her first World Tour title, with Viktoria Orsi Toth as her team partner. Their lineup got another title in 2018 in Sochi, even with a well-publicized slump after the 2016 Rio Olympics.
Currently, Menegatti is worth $1.5 million, mostly from her career earnings and her sponsorship deals with Mikasa, Oakley, and Adidas.
