Ronaldo named the world's highest-paid athlete
Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and LeBron James were the three athletes to earn the most over the last 12 months.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been named as the world's highest-paid athlete in the 2016 edition of American business magazine Forbes' list.
Ronaldo earned $88 million up to June 1 2016, which is made up of $56m in salary and $32m in endorsements to put him clear at the top.
It is the first time since 2000 that the number one position has not been filled by boxer Floyd Mayweather – now retired after finishing first last year - or golfer Tiger Woods, who has not won a major for eight years.
Ronaldo's total put him ahead of fellow footballer Lionel Messi, who picked up $81.4m over the past 12 months, while basketball star LeBron James was third with $77.2m – up from number six spot last year.
James earned more than the Barcelona and Real Madrid players in endorsements ($54m), although his $23.2m salary was dwarfed by the wages of Ronaldo and Messi ($53.4m).
Basketball had three players in the top 10 – more than any other sport - with Kevin Durant ($56.2m) fifth and Kobe Bryant ($50m) in 10th.
Tennis duo Roger Federer ($67.8m) and Novak Djokovic ($55.8m) were fourth and sixth in the list respectively.
Baseball did not have a representative in the top 10, but was the most prolific in the first 100 with 26 players featuring. The NFL was next on 21, topped by Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton ($53.1m) in seventh spot, with basketball (18) and football (12) also faring well.
Golfers Phil Mickelson ($52.9m) and Jordan Spieth ($52.8m) were eighth and ninth respectively.
Spieth was the biggest mover in the list, surging from number 85 last year after capitalising commercially on his two major wins.
Forbes' top 10 highest-paid athletes:
1. Cristiano Ronaldo - $88m
2. Lionel Messi - $81.4m
3. LeBron James - $77.2m

Is romance blossoming between Prince Harry and Ellie Goulding?
Prince Harry and Ellie Goulding were reportedly seen kissing away from prying eyes during a polo match in Berkshire last month, sparking speculation that the pair are an item.Rumours that Harry and Ellie are dating have seen bookmakers publishing odds on him popping the question to the singer.
Bookmaker Coral is offering odds of 5-1 that they confirm they are dating following a flurry of bets after The Sun newspaper’s story about the couple.
Kensington Palace has declined to comment about the speculation.
Ellie is a friend of the younger members of the Royal Family, having sung at the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s 2011 wedding reception. She also performed at the closing ceremony of Harry’s first Invictus Games in 2014.
She sang at the polo match at Coworth Park in Berkshire where William and Harry played at the end of May, a few months after it was confirmed she had split from long-term boyfriend Dougie Poynter, bassist with the band McFly.
Coral’s Nicola McGeady said: “Prince Harry has been linked with various women since splitting with Cressida Bonas two years ago but this latest rumour involving Ellie Goulding has sparked more interest than normal, suggesting that the pair are indeed an item.”
The bookmaker has opened betting on things becoming more serious between the two, with odds of 50-1 that the Prince proposes to the star before the end of next year, and 100-1 that they wed.
Ellie has not responded to the story – instead posting a sultry selfie online.
Hillary Clinton celebrates victory, wins California
Hillary Clinton claimed her place in history Tuesday as America's first female presumptive presidential nominee but rival Bernie Sanders is refusing to drop his bid despite overwhelming odds.
The former secretary of state immediately pivoted from her victory to a full bore assault on the presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump and made a sweeping effort to reach out to Sanders supporters in an attempt to unify Democrats.
But hours after Clinton's euphoric victory rally in Brooklyn, Sanders spoke before a roaring crowd of his own in California to declare "the struggle continues." The Vermont senator pledged to stay in the race through next week's primary in Washington, D.C., and to fight on for social, economic, racial and environmental justice at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia.
But he did not specifically commit to pursuing his fight for the nomination at the convention, leaving his ultimate intentions unclear.Obama's call
President Barack Obama, who waited until voting ended in the last six primary states to weigh in on the race, called both candidates to congratulate them for "running inspiring campaigns that have energized Democrats," according to a White House statement.
But the President, who will meet with Sanders Thursday at the Vermont senator's request, clearly sided with Clinton by lauding her for "securing the delegates necessary to clinch the Democratic nomination for President."Her historic campaign inspired millions and is an extension of her lifelong fight for middle-class families and children," the statement said.
Reaching the highest peak yet in a tumultuous and trailblazing political career, Clinton claimed victory exactly eight years after folding her 2008 Democratic primary campaign against Obama.
"Thanks to you, we've reached a milestone," she said during a speech in Brooklyn. "Tonight's victory is not about one person. It belongs to generations of women and men who struggled and sacrificed and made this moment possible."
Her long-awaited moment of celebration came as she notched wins in the night's primaries in California, New Jersey, South Dakota and New Mexico Democratic primaries, according to CNN projections.
Clinton took the stage in Brooklyn to an explosion of cheers from her crowd, in the kind of eruption of enthusiasm that has been fleeting during much of her campaign. Clearly delighted, she stood with her arms outstretched on stage, savoring the adulation.
Reaching out to Sanders supporters, Clinton praised the Vermont senator for his long public service and mirrored some of his progressive economic rhetoric. She played down any notion of divisions and said their vigorous primary campaign was "very good for the Democratic Party and for America."
But in a sign of the task she faces in uniting the party, Sanders supporters loudly booed her name when he said he had received a "gracious" call from his rival and said he had congratulated her on her victories on Tuesday.
Sanders confounded the notion that the end of the state primary races would mean the end of his campaign.
"Next Tuesday, we continue the fight in the last primary in Washington DC," Sanders said. "We are going to fight hard to win the primary in Washington, D.C., and then we take our fight for social, economic, racial and environmental justice to Philadelphia."
"I am pretty good at arithmetic and I know that the fight in front of us in a very, very steep fight."
But Sanders vowed to fight on for every delegate and every vote.
