Yani Tseng – $8 Million
Enshrined as the youngest woman to win five championships at just 22 years old, Taiwan’s Yani Tseng certainly deserves a place on this list. Her heyday was between 2008 and 2012, where in addition to occupying the number one position in the women’s golf rankings for 109 consecutive weeks, she became one of the most influential figures according to Time magazine. Although her career has taken a downward turn, Tseng has earned more than $10 million in prize money and her net worth despite the years is still close to $8 million.
