A professional is required to possess a large knowledge derived from extensive academic and practical training. Professional skills are important to the well-being of society ...
... In sports, a professional is someone who participates for money. The opposite is amateur, meaning a person that has not played for money, but usually through an academic setting (e.g. college football).
This is from Wikipedia:

I don't care if I am professional by Wikipedia's (or any other) definition. For me most important is that I win. I am cool with that, call me amateur, semi-pro, one-quarter pro. I don't understand why anybody should care if he is "professional" or "amateur" as long as he or she wins.
