Resident of Andretti Autosport in IndyCar, Danica Patrick would be, according to Forbes.com, the third highest paid female athlete on the planet (salaries, advertisements, etc.). She would receive $12 million per year.
In first place we find for the 7th consecutive year the Russian tennis champion Maria Sharapova with 25 million dollars in winnings. She is followed by another tennis player, just 21 years old, Caroline Wozniacki. The latter, world number 1, would have earned $12,4 million over the last 12 months.
