Laura Woods is sixth on the list of the top 10 highest-earning sports presenters in the UK.

Woods has grown into one of the best and most popular hosts in the space, having worked for the likes of Sky Sports, DAZN and talkSPORT.

She is now the face of TNT Sports' Champions League coverage but was also a key part of their presentation for the blockbuster fight between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou while also working for ITV whenever England's women's team are playing.

According to The Sun, Woods' net worth is £2 million and will no doubt increase in the future.

In terms of largest net worth, Woods is ahead of the BBC's Alex Scott (£1.5 million), Jules Breach of TNT Sports and Channel 4 (£700,000), Emma Paton (£650,000) and Kelly Somers (£600,000).

However, she is still some way off veteran Gabby Logan, who has been a mainstay on our screens with the BBC.

She is said to have a net worth of £4 million, which puts her in third in the top ten ahead of former Spurs and Newcastle midfielder Jermaine Jenas (£3 million) - who hosts the One Show.

David Jones of Sky Sports also has the same estimated net worth as Logan, having been a staple of Premier League football coverage in recent times.

At the very top of the list by some margin is England legend Gary Lineker, who is said to be paid a £1.35 million annual salary by the BBC.
