And let's not forget about the other amazing athletes who made the top 25, including badminton player P.V. Sindhu, basketball player Candace Parker, and soccer stars Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan.

What's even more impressive is that the top 10 female athletes accounted for a record $194 million, a 17% increase from last year.
