American Sports in Decline

Football is the best, Amerifat sports are pathetic
>Real Madrid footballer Cristiano Ronaldo earns more than any other sportsperson, Forbes' annual list of the world's wealthiest athletes shows.

>The influential business magazine's list has been led by either boxer Floyd Mayweather or golfer Tiger Woods for the past decade-and-a-half.

>But with Mayweather retiring and Woods not playing because of injury, the Portugal captain has risen to the top.

>He earned $88m (£60.6m) from salary, bonuses and endorsements last year.

>Ronaldo, 31, is only the second team sport athlete, after basketball superstar Michael Jordan, to have topped the list since Forbes began tracking earnings in 1990.

>His off-pitch earnings of $32m (£22m) include a $13m-a-year deal (£8.96m) with sportswear firm Nike - which has partnerships with half of the top 100 stars.

The three-time world player of the year's most significant football rival, Barcelona and Argentina forward Lionel Messi, is second on the list with earnings of $81.4m (£56.1m) last year.

In full, the top 10 list is as follows:
◾Cristiano Ronaldo - football ($88m/£60.6m)
◾Lionel Messi - football ($81.4m/£56.1m)
◾LeBron James - basketball ($77.2m/£53.2m)
◾Roger Federer - tennis ($67.8m/£46.7m)
◾Kevin Durant - basketball (£56.2m/£38.7m)
◾Novak Djokovic - tennis ($55.8m/£38.46m)
◾Cam Newton - American football ($53.1m/£36.6m)
◾Phil Mickelson - golf ($52.9m/£36.46m)
◾Jordan Spieth - golf ($52.8m/£36.39m)
◾Kobe Bryant - basketball ($50m/£34.46m).
