Has there ever been an athlete, in any sport, that has had such a huge impact on their sport?

Baseball...Babe Ruth?
Basketball...Michael Jordan?
Socker...Pele?
Football...Jim Brown?
Boxing...Muhammad Ali?
Hockey...Wayne Gretzky?

Tiger has vastly increased ratings, prize money, advertising money, the number of amateur golfers, etc. Jordan might be close, but I don't see if anyone else compares.

Nascar...Jimmy Johnson
