Golf Team Looking Good

[Reliable Source]

 

 

 

Really shocked we don't give USF Golf a huge shout out. Team was 19 under par today, lead FSU, OSU, UF, Illini, Purdue, Auburn , Memphis and rest of field by 9 strokes, at our own invitational. What do these guys need to do to get a little love?

Are there any REAL Bulls fans left in here?

Dude, it is golf.

 

Tiger drags down $80MM a year, 10x the best FB players. Dude,you're right, IT IS GOLF!!!!!

 

 

Name - Pay  - Salary/Winnings - Sport

Tiger Woods - $78.1M - $13.1M - Golf

Drew Brees - $51M - $40M - Football

 

Not quite 10x more

 

 

----

 

But anyways.. we should support ALL USF sports teams

 

Skins no 1- Pierre Garcon $8.1

Saints no 1- Drew Brees   $17.4

Falcons no 1- Matt Ryan  $9.6

Love how Forbes labels Tiger a college "dropout", He could buy the magazine with the money he spends on Jet fuel each week. I was a little off, but the point remains.

 

Chase Koepka is going to make more his 1st year as a pro than ANY other USF athlete.  The sponsors are drooling over him.

JPP makes $2.9MM

So you are comparing actual football salary vs Wood's COMPLETE intake.

You failed to include that Tiger Woods made 13M based on his golf tournaments

The rest of the 65M comes from endorsements (which can vary WILDLY between players of any sports.)

 

Which is why I included the information on my previous post that separated "Complete Pay" and "Salary/Winnings."

 

Also you're basing your generalization on one player's endorsement, which is no where near the average of his profession.

 

Here is where I obtained my data for the past post:

http://www.forbes.com/athletes/list/

 

5 Golf players make the top 100 highest paid athletes (when endorsements are included. (1, 7, 21, 78, 81)

13 Football players made the list: (5, 6, 11, 13, 19, 24, 31, 33, 38, 45, 50, 53, and 84.)

 

The table is sortable, which makes it easy to compare by other statistics. 

Going by actual salary (or winnings) alone, Football players make 4 of the top 5 athletes.

 

 

Also.. this is based on THIS YEARS winnings.  One thing about golf is that you do not have a set salary.  Your income can vary immensely year to year: From PGA winnings alone:

• 1996: $790,594
• 1997: $2,066,833
• 1998: $1,841,117
• 1999: $6,616,585
• 2000: $9,188,321
• 2001: $5,687,777
• 2002: $6,912,625
• 2003: $6,673,413
• 2004: $5,365,472
• 2005: $10,628,024
• 2006: $9,941,563
• 2007: $10,867,052
• 2008: $5,775,000
• 2009: $10,508,163
• 2010: $1,294,765
• 2011: $660,238
• 2012: $6,133,158
• 2013: $8,553,439

 

Tiger Woods on the World Money List (which includes world wide non-PGA tournaments):

• 2003: $6,700,288
• 2004: $5,819,407
• 2005: $11,515,939
• 2006: $11,141,827
• 2007: $11,002,706
• 2008: $6,196,717
• 2009: $10,948,054
• 2010: $2,154,516
• 2011: $1,940,238

Yeah, but let's compare lifetime earnings...

[Reliable Source]

My point remains, Golf is a big deal sport, no matter how you sort the numbers. Those guys on the USF team are playing incredibly. For some ill informed poster to dismiss it like it's badminton is just stupid. Anyone have results from today yet?

And that is what we agree on:

[bullsbucsfan426]

That's awesome. Always good to have a reason to cheer for our sports teams. 

 

The new facilities donated by Dr. Chowdhari must really be helping.

I'm sure every Bulls fan is happy for the USF team, but not everyone cares about golf, and just because most some posters aren't posting any "love" on this page for the USF team doesn't mean they're not real fans.  NEB didn't dismiss it like it's badminton, he was reacting to your BS calling out of people that aren't posting their sheer joy stemming from the success of the golf team.

So I am suppose to like the support because USF plays? The sport is boring to me that's all. I don't give two violation how much money they make. Good lord I hope we don't get a NASCAR team or I am really in trouble.

Hahaha, I'm with you on the NASCAR bit. That is one "sport" I could give two shites about.
