Li Na, the most famous Chinese tennis player in the world, has topped the 2013 Highest-earning Chinese Athletes Ranking with earnings of 124.5 million yuan, which was recently published by Titan Weekly, a popular Chinese sports newspaper.

Her wealth is double the sum of the next two people on the list. There are 16 athletes on the list with a wealth of more than 10 million yuan.

Although the Chinese football team hasn't performed well in international competitions, football players still earned a lot from domestic matches and have a large number of fans. Seven spots were taken by football players and all of them come from Guangzhou Evergrande Football Club, a top club in China.

The following are the top 15 highest-earning Chinese athletes in 2013:
