Coming into 2009, Woods had earned $895 million between his sponsors, golf and other business ventures. It looks like the FedEx Cup was the final straw, pushing him over $100 million for the year and now into the billion dollar mark.Tiger Woods a Billion-Dollar Athlete originally appeared on Fanhouse Golf Blog on Wed, 30 Sep 2009 16:41:00 EST .
