Guyana athletics prize money

Guyana has taken $30,250 out of athletics, 104th of the 130 countries the sport has paid. Troy Doris is the biggest earner on $26,000, 86% of the national total.

All of it belongs to two athletes by name. Guyana 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.

1 Troy Doris Diamond League 7 - $26,000
2 Aliyah Abrams Diamond League 4 - $4,250

Career totals across all six competitions, not a single season. PAID is how many finishing places were paid for, which is a different count from wins: a second place in a Diamond League final and a world title are both one payment. Two of these athletes have a page of their own here.

The biggest earners

All two of them

Troy Doris holds 86% of everything Guyana has won in athletics. The two biggest hold 100% of it between them, and $15,125 is what the national total works out at per paid athlete.

All six 2 0 $30,250 - $30,250

The Diamond League is the biggest of the six for Guyana on $30,250, 100% of the national total. It is also the only one of the six that has ever paid Guyana anything. Guyana 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 2 because no Guyana 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.

Guyana against the rest

Where $30,250 puts Guyana

That is under 0.1% of the $135,290,875 athletics has paid to a country, and 104th out of 130. Guyana has Samoa above on $30,500 and Iceland below on $30,000.

The biggest of the 130 is the United States on $29,436,125, which is 21.8% of everything the sport has paid to a country. The full money list ranks every one of them, and the six competitions behind these figures each have a section of their own.
