Albania athletics prize money

Albania has taken $5,250 out of athletics, 109th of the 121 countries the sport has paid. Luiza Gega is the only athlete on it, on $5,250.

All of it belongs to one athlete by name. Albania has never been paid a relay purse, a World Relays ladder place or a cross country team standing, which are the three things that pay a federation rather than a person.

The Diamond League is the biggest of the six for Albania on $5,250, 100% of the national total. It is also the only one of the six that has ever paid Albania anything. Albania has won nothing at the World Championships, the World Indoor Championships, the Ultimate Championship, the World Relays and the World Cross Country Championships.

The ATHLETES column adds up to 1 because no Albania athlete has been paid by more than one of the six. Where one has, the same person is counted in every row that paid them and once in the national total.
