He is by far....here is a career money list for the PGA Tour. Keep in mind this only counts prize money won in tournaments.
If we had a way to know his endorsement money (Nike, Rolex, Buick, etc) it would be even more that his prize money...WAY more.
(Tiger's first contract with Nike in 1996 (reportedly for $40 million over 5 years). According to a 2013 ESPN report, this was followed by an estimated $100 million contract signed in 2001 over 5 years, and then an 8-year deal in 2006 for an estimated $20-40 million annually.Apr 15, 2019)
And then there's appearance fees outside the us where he has always required a minimum of 1 million just to show up....and recently he turned down 3.3 million appearance fee to play an event in the middle east just because he is too busy, lol.
