Looks like the PGA tour died when Tiger quit playing regularly (his last almost full year was 2017).

And the NBA revenue has grown dramatically since Jordan left. Revenue in 2021 was ~$2.1 billion which steadily rose to ~$8.8billion before covid when it dipped. But by 2023 it was over $10billion.

30 years of growth for each (Tiger joined in 1996) seems pretty permanent, especially compared to something that has happened once.
