Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Roger Federer is the highest-paid athlete in the world as only two women make top 100

How much is too much? Three top athletes, a beloved tennis player Roger Federer, football superstars Ronaldo of Juventus and Messi of Barcelona earned over 100 million dollars respectively for the year ending May 31, according to Forbes. Federer became the first tennis player who was ranked the top on Forbes’ world’s 100 highest-paid athletes list. Most of his earning came from prize money and endorsement while the two football players earned lucrative salaries and endorsement. However, along with other highly paid athletes, they had to take cuts in salaries and endorsement as the world’s economy has been shrinking since March because of the pandemic. In fact, the combined earning by the 100 highest-paid athletes decreased by 9% to $3.6 billion.

Even though those very top athletes earn tens of million dollars, a cut is a cut, a ranking is a ranking.

Enjoy reading the article and guess how much the 100 highest-paid athletes will earn this year.
