    Is this proofed ? I don´t think that Federer is earning more than Sharapova. If you are concerned just about prize money, which is in my opinion the more important thing, than it is safe to say Federer leading the way, but if you add all the money Tennis Stars get from commercial and advertising I really think that Sharapova is ahead, I have heard she´s earning 500 000 $ per week.
