Beyond the professional prestige and the desire to get the last tickets to the Olympics, the participants in the World Aquatics Championship that will be held in Qatar in the coming weeks will be able to significantly increase their bank account.
The organizers of the championship will distribute a total of 5.6 million dollars in prizes to the leaders in the various competitions.
Naturally, the significant grants will go to the swimming branch (about 2.7 million dollars), but the other professions will also benefit from handsome sums - diving (780 thousand dollars), water polo (720) and artistic swimming (about 950 thousand in the various competitions).
The eight athletes who will reach each final will receive handsome grants that vary between the different branches in descending order from the first place winner to the eighth place winner.
In addition, any athlete who sets a new world record during the championship will receive an additional grant ranging from 10-30 thousand dollars.
