You're the best on Earth at one sport. Which sport do you want to be king of?

[PortCityProphet]

To me it's golf and it's not close.
Individual sport won't have bum ass teammates holding you down. Have to world wide recognition. That endorsement money is untouchable

Gotta be futbol

Does poker count?

 

[MAKAVELI25]

Golf

- VERY little chance at injury
- Millions of Dollars
- Rub elbows with more of the elite as they are probably more likely to watch golf than any other sport
-Can play for 20 or more years
- Level of fame will be elevated by the fact that the general public knows very little about Golfers. Tiger Woods doesn't have a Kobe or LeBron equivalent he has to compete with (in the fame department), its Tiger and then everybody else

Anyone who says Football (though its my favorite to watch) is a fool

boxing

soccer - go anywhere in the world except the US and get instant puss. no salary caps. international competitions ostensibly mean as much as club competitions. and when you need a break from celebrity, you dont have to go to some small private island. just head stateside and enjoy the whole country incognito

 

[HalfwayHandsome]

baseball more money

 

[Tony D'Amato]

The golf lifestyle is so underrated. Rory and Phil dont even win and live just as good or better than the highest paid player in any sport. And can do their jobs into their 50s or even 60s if they want.

A Formula 1 driver lives pretty damn good too.

Soccer

Basbeball just to make them cacs mad.

Cricket, that way I could be a millionaire without people in the US knowing.

I'd never want to be famous in this country.

I came in ready to say baseball, but golf seems like the better answer and I didn't even consider it.

1. Tennis
2. Basketball
3. Golf

I was tempted to say golf, but despite the already mentioned advantages I feel like it's the one sport where being the clear best doesn't necessarily translate to consistent success. The real money in golf comes via endorsements. You're not getting that huge payday until you come thru and crush the buildings for atleast a couple years. If my game is off at the wrong time I could be winning a nice amount of tournaments but missing out on those majors. Tiger's the best in the world right now even if you erased everything before his controversy. But if you did that he wouldn't be making the kind of money he is now.

In tennis, the best is getting to the semis pretty much every time. Plus if I could dominate the mens game being not only American but black the money would be ridiculous.

I'm pretty much gonna be in the playoffs annually if I'm the best player in the NBA and the endorsement opportunities are greatest there among the big three sports in the US.

Golf and tennis dfinitely got it locked when you factor in the fact you don't have to worry about possibly getting stuck in some bum city depending on where you get drafted.

Cricket, that way I could be a millionaire without people in the US knowing.

I'd never want to be famous in this country.

Are those dudes making Punjabi MC money?
