The Swiss star made $56.2 million (Dh206.4m) from July of last year through this past June, with endorsement deals from such firms as Rolex and Nike bringing the lion's share of that total, more than $40m (Dh147m).

At age 33, Federer owns three titles in 2014 and was a Wimbledon runner-up, dropping the final in five sets to top-ranked Novak Djokovic.

Five men and five women made this year’s list.

Spaniard Rafael Nadal, who won his ninth French Open crown this past June, ranked second on the list at $44.5m (Dh163.4m) but was on the sidelines Monday as the US Open began in New York because of a wrist injury. Nadal had $30m (Dh110.2m) in sponsor money.

With his adidas contract expiring this year, a lucrative new deal with adidas or Nike could raise his total next year no matter how he fares at this year's US Open.
