Although not as popular as several other athletes, tennis star Jessica Pegula is at the pinnacle when it cones to total net worth, surpassing even NBA legend Michael Jordan.

According to data from Forbes and Celebrity Net Worth, the 30 richest sports stars in the world were listed, with Jordan topping the list. However, it failed to incorporate net worth, which saw Pegula climb to the top.

Jordan's net worth totals $2.2 billion, while Pegula had earned $7.2 million in career prize money. However, the WTA World No.3 stands to inherit a fortune, with her father Terry Pegula worth an estimated $6.8 billion. The self-made businessman owns NFL team, the Buffalo Bills, which he purchased in 2014 from Donald Trump.

Additionally, Pegula owns Ready 24, a thriving skincare line, meaning her total net worth would surpass Michael Jordan's should all her other assets be taken into consideration.

124 - Jessica Pegula has 124 rallies of 10+ shots in WTA 1000 tournaments so far over 2023. It is the highest tally of any player and 20 more than the next best, Elena Rybakina. Flow.
