Tunisia athletics prize money

Tunisia has taken $93,250 out of athletics, 69th of the 121 countries the sport has paid. Marwa Bouzayani is the biggest earner on $66,500, 71.3% of the national total.

All of it belongs to four athletes by name. Tunisia 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.

All six 4 1 $93,250 — $93,250

The Diamond League is the biggest of the six for Tunisia on $77,250, 82.8% of the national total. Two of the six have paid Tunisia. Tunisia 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. Marwa Bouzayani has been paid by two of them: the Diamond League and the World Championships.
