yup, the winner of todays pga championship will win more than all prize money from first to last place in every bodybuilding contest male and female combined for the entire year. funny tho how Ron and chik argue that the IFBB pays fair
You are equating golf with bodybuilding? Competitive bodybuilding is a niche sport. Golf is played by millions, television contracts, and all you need is a stick to hit a ball with. Oh yeah, those sticks can cost hundreds, even thousands. Come on.
Many supplement companies support the bodybuilding industry, but it is just one part. Many people use supplements and eat protein. Athletes, and gasp, even some golfers.
In any case, prize money is one aspect. Supplement contracts, clothing contracts, magazine contacts and much more is another part.
