[Reuters]–The US economic magazine Forbes announced the income ranking of female athletes on the 13th, and Naomi Osaka, who won the four major tournaments in women’s tennis, became the top.

Osaka earned $ 57.3 million in tournament prize money and advertising activities, most of which was advertising revenue. Osaka has contracted with more than 10 brand partners in the last year and a half.

As a player, he abstained from the French Open due to mental health problems and also missed the Wimbledon Championship.

Also in second place was tennis Serena Williams for $ 45.9 million, followed by her sister Venus for $ 11.3 million, and fourth place for gymnastics Simone Biles (all in the US) for $ 10.1 million.

Five tennis players are in the top ten, but the least in the last decade.
