Serbia athletics prize money
Serbia has taken $453,417 out of athletics, 37th of the 121 countries the sport has paid. Angelina Topić is the biggest earner on $148,167, 32.7% of the national total.
All of it belongs to seven athletes by name. Serbia 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 Serbia on $364,750, 80.4% of the national total. Four of the six have paid Serbia. Serbia has won nothing at 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 7: three athletes have been paid by more than one of the six, and are counted in every row that paid them and once in the national total. Angelina Topić has been paid by four of them: the Diamond League, the World Championships, the World Indoor Championships and the Ultimate Championship.
