How much money does a professional golfer make?

Answer 1

Salaries for professional golfers vary widely based on the number of tournaments they enter and win and the number of endorsements/sponsors they have.

Tiger Woods, the highest paid athlete in the world, earned $110 million from 2008 to 2009 from both tournament earnings and sponsorships.

Answer 2

It all depends how good they are and how successful they become. Consider Tiger Woods, in his last full season, 2007, his on course earnings were over $22 million and his sponsorships and endorsements were around $100 million. A decent player who wins maybe one or two tournaments a year would earn around $5 million dollars on course and sponsorships and endorsements could be (depending on status and marketability) $10-40 million. A struggling tour pro would make around $5,000-10,000 for a missed cut, $40,000-100,000 for a good finish, maybe as little as $500,000 for the season. Lesser known pros would get small endorsements $250,000 or so p.a.

A club pro would earn, depending on club size and status could earn $50,000 upwards per annum. Depends if they give lessons or not and other factors.
