Wouldn't you know it, Serena Williams is making history again. The tennis legend is the first athlete to ever make Forbes' list of richest self-made women in America.
According to Forbes' profile, Williams is worth an estimated $225 million, but her green wasn't all made on the court. Lucrative endorsements with Nike, high-profile fashion and beauty collaborations and a large portfolio of advertising and media work have made her a recognizable face even among people who have never watched a single serve. In recent years, Forbes reports, Williams has invested in dozens of startups and launched her own venture capital firm, Serena Ventures, this April.
