The highest paid athletes in the world are actually the richest athletes too. There are many sports around the globe, the best players in a particular sport will actually be the highest paid athletes in that particular sport, Likewise this visualisation shows the top 10 richest athletes in the world. Also the players in this list are the top 10 famous athletes too. This is a list of the most highest paid athlete 2019 as ranked by Forbes magazine. The list is only about modern time athletes. For example, Gaius Appuleius Diocles, a Roman Chariot racer is said to have earned 35,863,120 sesterces, by some estimation over $15 billion in today's dollars. This means he would be #1 amongst the highest paid athletes in the world of all time, derived from an extrapolation that his wealth would have been enough to fund the entire Roman Army for more than two months, the apt comparison is what it takes to pay the wages of the American armed forces for the same period. Another wheat-based calculation yields $6.49 million USD in 2019. Elite athletes are earning more than ever thanks to soaring salaries driven by ever-richer TV contracts. The cutoff to crack the world’s 100 highest paid athletes is $25 million this year, compared with $17.3 million five years ago. Forbes has tracked the leading earners in sports for three decades, and only seven athletes have landed in the top spot since 1990 (Tiger Woods holds the record with 12 times at No. 1). Global soccer icon Lionel Messi adds an eighth name to the roll call this year and, after longtime rival Cristiano Ronaldo, is only the second soccer player to rank first. So here is a list of Highest paid players in the world. Bye!!!!
