I think that Texas hold em is the highest paying sport if we consider how much in prize money is awarded how often. Also I know no sporting prize bigger than 12 million which was won in the 2006 World Series (8 million in 2007). Consider internet tournaments and I think that poker would be bigger than Tennis and Golf.

Golf tournaments payoff 1½ to 7 million a week to the winner. Some pro Baseball players make base 30 million a year. That is without endorsement contracts.
