Here’s the Top 10 highest paid female athletes in 2015 according to Forbes:

  1. Maria Sharapova – $29.7 million
  2. Serena Williams – $24.6 million
  3. Caroline Wozniacki – $14.6 million
  4. Danica Patrick – $13.9 million
  5. Ana Ivanovic – $8.3 million
  6. Petra Kvitova – $7.7 million
  7. Simona Halep – $6.8 million
  8. Ronda Rousey – $6.5 million
  9. Stacy Lewis – $6.4 million
  10. Agnieszka Radwanska – $6 million

Altogether, they pulled in 124 million between June 2014 and June 2015. If you added up all of the top 10 women, their combined earnings would rank number 3 on the overall list just behind Floyd and Manny, and just ahead of Ronaldo and Messi.
