Clark's historic achievements in the WNBA this season include winning the Rookie of the Year award and becoming the first rookie since 2008 to make the All-WNBA First Team.

Meanwhile, at the top of the list is US tennis sensation Coco Gauff, who has retained her No. 1 ranking for the second consecutive year. Gauff earned a staggering $30.4 million in 2024, with $9.4 million coming from her on-court performances. The 20-year-old made headlines by winning the women’s doubles title at the French Open and clinching the WTA Finals singles championship. She also became the youngest Team USA flag bearer at the Olympics, cementing her legacy in sports history.

At No. 2 is skier Eileen Gu, who earned $22.1 million, with nearly all of it from endorsements. Tennis players dominated the rankings with nine names in the top 15, including Iga Świątek, Naomi Osaka, and Aryna Sabalenka.

Golfers Nelly Korda and Jeeno Thitikul, along with legendary gymnast Simone Biles, also shone bright in this year’s rankings. Biles, after a stunning comeback in Paris, earned $11.1 million, winning multiple medals to become the most decorated gymnast in history.
