I’ve never read any reports that he topped that mark in earnings or endorsements. What is his worth? And folks this is a divorce settlement..not a judgment! so he did this out of court…a judgment would order him to pay a percentage, a settlement is set by both parties with out and order from the courts.
Correction: One Billion…Sorry guys

Because a lion would never cheat on his wife but a tiger would! haha
Because he is (or at least WAS) just about the best person ever to play the game of Golf.
From what I have heard he is worth close to a billion dollars and has settled with his wife for a divorce costing him 700 million, which even with his damaged image he might make up if he starts playing at the excellent level that he used to be at and which he has not been anywhere near, lately.
Whenever you want to know someones true worth, ask Forbes. They seem to know more about peoples finances than the people themselves, and I am not just being cynical. Forbes Magazine puts Tigers worth at only about $650M. Recent reports are putting the settlement at only about $300M.
Unless your apparent misnomer here for Woods being worth a mere "million dollars" was a typographical error on your part, this answer is given as a correction to state that his personal yacht alone is estimated at being worth a minimum $24-million.
There are also plenty of reports indicating both his earnings from golf tournaments, as well as earnings from his endorsements. Ongoing and regularly updated reports about how much a particular tournament win is worth (e.g., The Masters) to ANY player winning the tournament – and not just whether Woods wins it – is public knowledge. Also, sponsors like Nike, Pepsi, Taco Bell commonly report endorsement payouts on Woods the same as endorsement payouts were routinely reported on basketball star Michael Jordan…
Ah, he’s probably worth more like half a billion. WAY more than a million.
Money! Money! Money!
Tiger Woods had to pay his wife to stay IN the marriage. But she is looking at the fortune she would make to stay OUT of it.
Money – thats all Mrs. Woods is worried about at the moment! Its tearing the Woods family apart, like it has torn many others. As long as there is money in divorce, the judiciary will be a vested and interested party in divorce.
Since usually it is the males who marry down, it appears logical (and is a fact ), that women want divorce first.
Is nt it time males woke up to their rights, and spoke up against money in divorce?
BAN ALIMONY!
WAKE UP, MALES! SPEAK UP!
