Gymnastics prize money
373 gymnasts have been paid £421,820 across 11 legs from 2025 to 2026. Milad Karimi has won the most, £11,546. Every leg of the FIG Apparatus World Cup pays the top eight in each of its ten apparatus finals, six for the men and four for the women, off one ladder for both. The FIG sets the floor at CHF 1,000 for a win down to CHF 100 for eighth, CHF 32,500 a leg. Cottbus pays CHF 1,500 down to CHF 200, CHF 50,500 in all, and Osijek pays twice the floor, CHF 65,000. Gymnasts tied on a place split the money for the places they cover. The FIG also pays CHF 5,000 on each apparatus to the winner of the year's series, which is not in these tables.
