Top 10 Golfers with the Highest Pay in 2025

The historical distinction between an Amateur and Professional golfer was just a social class difference and was never to be thought of as a sport to be relied on financially until the 20th century. 

Now professional golfers (i.e) those who just play golf and not take up teaching or coaching as they are called a Golf Pro. Some of the best in the world are multi-millionaires and have been in the sport for decades, slowly building their careers from the grassroot level and also getting brand deals and investments from the biggest sport brands in the world.
