British women's golfing legend Laura Davies unsurprisingly tops the all-time Ladies European Tour (LET) money list after a career spanning nearly 25 years.

After 38 tournament victories and seven first-place finishes in the Order of Merit she has won a total of 3,420,545, putting her well clear of a player widely regarded as the finest female golfer of all time Annika Sorenstam.

Sorenstam, despite having played far fewer seasons on the Ladies European Tour (just 16 in her career), is not far behind Davies in the money stakes. The Swedish superstar has 2,994,627 to her name thanks to 17 LET titles, but has managed only one Order of Merit win, in 1995.

It is a long financial drop down to third in the all-time money list Sweden's Sophie Gustafson. She first in the Order of Merit in both 2000 and 2007, and has taken home 1,998,291, while England's Trish Johnson is next with 1,957,209, just ahead of 11-title Swede Helen Alfredsson.

Retired English player Alison Nicholas has also made some serious money on the Ladies European Tour, with around 1.6m won over 21 years, and double Ladies English Open Maria Hjorth of Sweden comes in next with 1.5m.

Two French greats follow her, with 2008 Order of Merit winner and Player of the Year Gwladys Nocera earning a staggering 1.25m in just six years, ahead of Marie-Laure de Lorenzi won 1,189,332 in 18 years. Australia's Corinne Dibnah completes the top 10 with 1.18m over 25 years.
