ELLEN HOOG
FIELD HOCKEY
NET WORTH: $3 MILLION

Ellen Hoog began her career in field hockey at the age of 7. She made her debut for Dutch club SCHC and became a member of her country’s women’s field hockey team in 2004. She proved to be a formidable midfielder when she helped the team win the European Hockey Championship in Dublin in 2005 and eventually, the Women’s Hockey World Cup in 2006. She became a pivotal player for the Dutch women’s field hockey team for the Summer Olympics. During her membership in the Olympic team, the Netherlands won two Gold medals in women’s field hockey in 2008 and 2012. Aside from that, she also won the 2014 Women’s Hockey World Map and was named Best Player that year. It seemed that the Dutch’s investments in field hockey paid off.

Hoog eventually retired from international field hockey in 2016 and from field hockey altogether in 2017. Currently, she is worth $3 million, mostly from her career earnings and sponsorship deals.
