With the 2025 tax year in full swing, high-earning athletes are facing increasingly complex tax obligations, and the risk of being under-withheld is higher than ever.

A few key questions worth asking:
• Is your W-4 form correctly set up to reflect your actual income sources?
• Are your bonuses and endorsements being taxed at the right rate?
• Do you know why your net pay dropped in January?
• Are you confident your team is withholding the right amount?

Athletes can face combined tax rates that exceed 50%. Yet, many only see 22% withheld on large, one-time payments like bonuses and performance incentives.
