Looking at the thread about the money leaders so far this year got me thinking about who has made the most money in golf so far (at least on the tour)?
Did a little checking around and found a list of the top 100 money leaders. Holy c*ap, I gotta start working more seriously on my game. I didn't realize these guys can accumulate so much, and this doesn't include any endorsement money, private tournaments, and any other tours they may be involved in. Why, oh why, didn't I major in golf in college
Here's the top 20 and a link to the top 100
1 Tiger Woods 58,255,844
2 Vijay Singh 46,641,878
3 Phil Mickelson 38,381,360
4 Davis Love III 32,909,948
5 Ernie Els 26,773,376
6 Jim Furyk 25,815,400
7 David Toms 25,041,178
8 Justin Leonard 20,764,676
9 Nick Price 20,430,058
10 Kenny Perry 19,766,233
11 Fred Couples 19,051,827
12 Mark Calcavecchia 18,884,599
13 Scott Hoch 18,487,114
14 Fred Funk 18,291,624
