When Rory McIlroy sank the winning putt at the US Masters in Augusta last Sunday, his bank balance instantly jumped by $4.2m (€3.7m), the prize pot for the champion. His net worth increased by multiples of that.

Before he completed golf’s Grand Slam, McIlroy was worth £225m (€262m) according to the Sunday Times Rich List of 2024. That already put him among the world’s richest sportspeople, the likes of Tiger Woods and Cristiano Ronaldo.
