Read More »Top 10 Richest Rugby Players While rugby wages pale in comparison to the massive amount of money that other professional athletes can make, there are some rugby players who have done a great job amassing wealth. Read on to learn about the top ten richest rugby players. Who are the all time richest rugby players? Simon McDowell Sir Bill Gammell Jonny Wilkinson Sonny Bill Williams Beau Ryan Mike Tindall Handre Pollard Charles Piutau Maro Itoje Owen Farrell 1. Simon McDowell Simon McDowell is the richest rugby player in the world, with a net worth of around $54 million. Simon is now retired, but he was an Irish player during his rugby career. Unfortunately, his career was short lived, as Simon was forced to retire in 1990 due to a knee injury. McDowell played for the North Ireland Football Club throughout his entire career before becoming a referee after his professional playing career ended. His high net worth is in large part because he owns a chemical company called Kilwaughter. 2. Sir Bill Gammell Sir Bill Gammell is a former rugby player who has a net worth of more than $50 million. He retired in the late 1980s after an injury ended his career and went on to become a businessman after his retirement. Gammell founded a company called Cairn Energy. This is where Gammell earned most of his fortune over the past twenty plus years. The energy company resides in the global gas and oil industry, became extremely successful in the early 2000s, and was valued at over $10 billion in 2010. 3. Jonny Wilkinson Jonny Wilkinson is easily one of the wealthiest rugby players with a net worth of over $21 million. Although Wikinson is mainly known worldwide for his rugby skills, he is also known for keeping a very clean lifestyle. He did a phenomenal job of saving his salary and avoiding an abundantly lavish lifestyle during his career. Wilkinson has always kept a low profile and has really never been in the press for anything negative. He played Rugby Union, and was one of the only players to earn more than fifteen points per rugby game. After he retired in 2014, he was inducted into the Rugby Hall of Fame. 4. Sonny Bill Williams Sonny Bill Williams is a former rugby player from New Zealand with an estimated net worth of $15 million. Over his professional career, Williams signed a variety of contracts to play Rugby Union and Rugby League. He ultimately moved in a completely different direction to professional boxing. Williams was the first rugby player to ever become a global ambassador for Adidas. Notably, he signed a salary contract for a record $10 million, lasting two years with the Toronto Wolfpack team in the Super League. Most recently, Sonny Bill Williams fought a boxing match against Waikato Falefehi on June 26, 2021. His commitment to capitalizing on his athleticism and monetizing his career through sponsorships has served him well. 5. Beau Ryan Beau Ryan is an Australian rugby player with a net worth of $10 million. Born in New South Wales, Beau was a multi-dimensional player, playing as a wing, fullback, and center at times. In addition to being known for his skills on the field, Ryan is also a singer. In 2014, he released his very first single featuring the Justice Crew. In addition, part of the reason he has such a high net worth is because of the Adidas advertisements in which Ryan has been featured.
