4. Rafael Nadal – Net Worth: $180 Million
Despite being the world number 5, Rafael Nadal is one of the best ever tennis players in the world. No matter whom he is playing against across the net, Rafa always put up a great show for the audience. Ask anyone, even big fans of other players will not mind buying tickets to watch his matches.
Born on June 3, 1986, Rafa started his professional tennis career in 2001. Throughout his fifteen years of professional career, he has earned a total of $110 million prize money.
Rafa is among the few who has won all four Grand Slam titles plus Olympic Gold Medal. Thus, it should come as no surprise that international brands, including the very expensive Richard Mille watchmaker, endorse him.
Tennis fans would notice Rafa’s odd routines during every match. He would put two water bottles on their exact spots court side. And before his every serve, he would wipe sweat of his eyebrows aside and pull off a little wedgie. Can’t he afford better underwear with those millions of prize money?
