Serbia athletics prize money
Serbia has taken $688,417 out of athletics, 40th of the 130 countries the sport has paid. Ivana Španović is the biggest earner on $377,000, 54.8% of the national total.
All of it belongs to eight 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 $599,750, 87.1% 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 8: 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. Ivana Španović has been paid by two of them: the Diamond League and the World Indoor Championships.
