LeBron James makes 16 million a year, but a golfer wins money depending on their position in an event, so it varies. But an average amount for the professional golfers is 6 million a year. Tiger Woods made 10 million in 2007 but only made 6 million last year.

So to sum it up, Basketball is a more reliable income because you earn a salary from your club, while in golf it all depends on your performance at each tournament. A golfer can potentially make more money than a basketballer, but only if they perform extremely well.

That is true in a way. In the US basketball is more popular than soccer. That is why basketball players are paid more. In other countries, soccer is more popular so soccer players get paid more. Soccer in the US is becoming increasingly popular. Soon soccer players could be paid as much as basketball players.

Which sport requires more skill soccer or basketball?

Soccer by far. The size of soccer fields are much bigger than basketball courts. Also the shape that soccer players are in beats the shape of some basketball players one to none. occer players also play for a total of 90 minutes while in basketball it is 48 minutes. ( In soccer only 3 players can be switched out leaving 8 players on the field for the whole game, where as in basketball you can switched out at anytime.) Soccer is a combination of speed, endurance, stamina, skill, and teamwork. It is also a sport that uses strategy, strength, and your mind to find the best pass or to get around a defender. Basketball is more of upper arm strength and how the NBA stars look, soccer is played internationally. Both sports take a lot of training and skill however soccer has many more long term benefits.
