Venus Williams – $95 Million

Venus Williams is the equally famous and talented sister of Serena Williams. Like Serena, Venus is also a top tennis player, a former world No. 1, and one of the all-time greats of women’s tennis. Compared to her sister, Venus Williams hit the ball flat rather than topspin, so she made more mistakes, and dribbles were mainly offensive rather than defensive. She performs particularly well in grass events and is called the “Queen of Grass”.

Venus managed to make her own fortune, having a net worth of $95 million. She ranked 10th among the highest-paid female athletes counted by Forbes in 2019. This comes from her winnings, endorsements, and investments. Venus has her own interior design firm, called V Starr. However, much of her fortune comes from her tennis earnings. The Women’s Tennis Association even revealed that she had raked in $40.5 million worth of winnings throughout her career. Although she has suffered many injuries on the field, nothing can stop Venus from playing.
