Golden Boot
The Brazilian Golden Boot has been awarded to the highest goalscorer in Brazil each season since 2000. The award depends on a weighted system of points, with goals scored in certain competitions being worth more. This way, a goal scored in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A is worth more points than a goal scored in some of the State Championships.

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or boot:
“Love’s secrets, being mysteries, ever pertain to the transcendent and the infinite; and so they are as airy bridges, by which our further shadows pass over into the regions of the golden mists and exhalations; whence all poetical, lovely thoughts are engendered, and drop into us, as though pearls should drop from rainbows.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“The best quality tea must have creases like the leathern boot of Tartar horsemen, curl like the dewlap of a mighty bullock, unfold like a mist rising out of a ravine, gleam like a lake touched by a zephyr, and be wet and soft like a fine earth newly swept by rain.”
—Lu Yu (d. 804)
