THE FORTUNATE 50

For the first time since SI.com began publishing its list of the 50 highest-earning U.S. athletes, in 2004, Tiger Woods is not No. 1. The new leader (for now) is Floyd Mayweather Jr., who was unranked a year ago but scored two huge pay-per-view paychecks to earn $85 million—without a single endorsement. Go to SI.com to see which of your favorite athletes made this year's list.
