World Tennis Association star Naomi Osaka has been rated as the highest earning sportswoman in the world.
She is closely followed by tennis rival Serena Williams, a research by US business magazine Forbes, has revealed.
Tennis players have topped the rich list for years, with nine women involved in the sport leading the highest-earning sportswomen list for the past year.
Osaka is the highest earner with $37.4m (£26.3m) in the past year, while Serena Williams earned $36m (£27.2m).
In third-place is Ashleigh Barty with an income of $13.1m (£9.9m), with USWNT player Alex Morgan being the only athlete from outside tennis in the top 10.
Morgan has an income of $4.6m (£3.5m), which came through endorsements, as she birthed her first child in May.
Meanwhile, Osaka and Williams have both broken the previous record for annual earnings by a female athlete.
The previous record was held by Russian tennis player Maria Sharapova, whose income was $29.7m (£22.3m) in 2015.
Forbes calculated the income of the sportswomen for the year under review, starting 1 June 2019 to 1 June 2020.
