Caitlin Clark is the most powerful female athlete in the world, per
@Forbes.
The WNBA's Rookie of the Year in 2024 has been the primary catalyst for the catastrophic growth of the W the last few years.
While her WNBA paycheck doesn't show it (roughly $70,000), Forbes estimates Clark banked $8.1 million last season overall.
In terms of most powerful women in sports overall, the Indiana Fever star is ranked 4th.
1. Gayle Benson (owner of New Orleans Saints and New Orleans Pelicans)
2. Amy Howe (CEO of FanDuel)
3. Amy Montagne (Nike brand president)
4. Caitlin Clark (WNBA player)
Only 2 other professional athletes made the Top 10.
Both just so happen to play in the WNBA too with Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart tied for 9th place.
It's impressive how Clark managed to crack the top 4 playing 2 years in the W.
How many years will it take until she becomes number one? 🤔
