He is the reason, his team has managed to stay on the top of NBA standings. He is endorsed by some of the world's largest corporations, including Nike, McDonald's, Coca-Cola and Samsung. Though James took a slight pay cut to sign with the Miami Heat in 2010, he still makes around $20 million annually off that contract.

Tim Duncan

Though Duncan has never been one for the advertising world, the 16 year veteran wrapped up a seven-year, $122 million contract in 2010.

Ray Allen

His endorsement deals are minor, but a 17-year career of high salaries and a starring film credit in Spike Lee's "He Got Game" have boosted Allen's financial portfolio.

Vince Carter

He earned lucrative contracts from the Toronto Raptors and New Jersey Nets plus endorsement deals for his high-flying ways.

Dirk Norwitzki

Norwitzki has no agent and traditionally shies away from endorsements, but he's done well for himself business-wise. The long-time Dallas Mavericks star is entering the third year of a four-year, $80 million contract.

Let’s have a look at some accidents in the history of F1 racing that shook the fans across the world.

Niki Lauda

It was 1976 and the German grand prix at the Nurburgring. Lauda lost control of his Ferrari in the second lap of the race, his car spun into the barriers on the right side and then back across the track, where he collided with another car and burst into flames.

Gilles Villeneuve

This accident is termed as one of the worst accidents in the history of F1 racing. On his final qualifying lap for the Belgian Grand Prix at Zolder, his Ferrari came into contact with Jochen Mass’s car and was launched into the air. The crash was so strong that his car was severely smashed and Villeneuve was thrown across the track still strapped to his seat. Unfortunately, this accident claimed Villeneuve’s life.

Roland Ratzenberger

Ratzenberger was killed during a qualifying run at Imola. He had damaged his car on the previous lap and was attempting to secure the last grid spot, when the wind pressure caused by his high speed tore the wing completely off the car. The wing slid underneath the car, which failed to make the corner and slammed into the wall at 195 miles per hour.

Scott Kalitta

During an event at Oldbridge Township Raceway Park in Englishtown, New Jersey, Scott was in a qualifying race when, near the end of the run, the engine exploded into flames. The parachutes failed to open and the car careened through a sand trap before hitting a concrete wall at nearly 300 miles per hour. He died in this fatal accident. 

Moto GP

Accidents and injuries are an integral part of sports. However, the fun and excitement turn into sorrow when the accidents turn fatal. These were some unfortunate incidents that shook the Moto racing fans all over the world.

Golf has long been known as a gentleman's sport. Golf has a strange fascination of its own. It is technical. It is humbling. It is challenging. It is stylish. So, to be a successful Golfer one needs to have good knowledge of golf etiquette's and rules as there are no referees and golf requires players to be self-governing. So, if you aspire to be a professional golfer and play in prestigious golf tournaments someday, then here are some basic etiquette's you should be familiar with.

•  Play at a reasonable pace.
•  Have the player who is farthest away from the pin hit first on each shot.
•  Let the winner of the previous hole tee off first at the next tee.
•  Don't step on your fellow players putting lines -- the imaginary line that connects the ball to the hole.
•  Don't make any noise when your fellow player is preparing to putt.
•  Don't swing your club until the area around you has been cleared of people. You do not want to risk hitting a fellow golfer.
•  If you find that your ball is heading in the direction of another player or group of players, be sure to yell "Fore!" to signal that they should be watchful of your incoming golf ball.
•  Don’t lose cool. Displays of frustration are one thing, but outbursts of temper are quite another. Yelling, screaming, throwing clubs or otherwise making a fool of yourself are unacceptable and, in some cases, dangerous to yourself and others.
•  Last but not the least; respect the rules and regulations of the course you are playing.

Muscular Strength

Leg and core body strength are both critical for powerful ball return. Therefore, building lower-body strength with routines such as weighted lunges is very important.

Flexibility

Tennis players need to build and maintain flexibility to prevent injury.Stretching before tennis play and static stretches afterwards can work wonders in improving your flexibility.

Agility and Speed

Without the ability to get to the ball quickly, tennis players cannot utilize their strength and hand-eye coordination. Therefore it is very important to increase the agility and sped with regular lateral-shuffle and foot-crossing speed drills.

Tennis is a high-intensity sport that places a lot of stress on your body. Therefore, it is very important to take care by using correct form on and off the court. With dedication, hard work, and proper maintenance, your body will serve you well for a longer period of time.
