Grenada athletics prize money
Grenada has taken $634,250 out of athletics, 43rd of the 130 countries the sport has paid. Kirani James is the biggest earner on $310,250, 48.9% of the national total.
All of it belongs to six athletes by name. Grenada 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 Grenada on $524,250, 82.7% of the national total. Three of the six have paid Grenada. Grenada has won nothing at the World Indoor Championships, 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 6: 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. Anderson Peters has been paid by three of them: the Diamond League, the World Championships and the Ultimate Championship.
