Ecuador athletics prize money

Ecuador has taken $159,000 out of athletics, 71st of the 130 countries the sport has paid. Juleisy Angulo is the biggest earner on $72,000, 45.3% of the national total.

All of it belongs to four athletes by name. Ecuador 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 World Championships is the biggest of the six for Ecuador on $108,000, 67.9% of the national total. Two of the six have paid Ecuador. Ecuador has won nothing at the World Indoor Championships, the Ultimate Championship, the World Relays and the World Cross Country Championships.

The ATHLETES column counts the people each competition paid, so it does not add up to 4: one athlete has been paid by more than one of the six, and is counted in every row that paid them and once in the national total. Juleisy Angulo has been paid by two of them: the Diamond League and the World Championships.
