These World Championships are not only about the medals, the honour, the triumph, but also about… money. Compared to soccer/football or formula 1 it’s like nothing. But nevertheless, if Russia really wins, Mustafina grabs gold in the AA, on floor and vault and maybe even another bronze or silver on beam or bars, she might be about 15.000$ richer. Keep the eyes on the prize!

How does it work for men?
Also, I think for the US women, the team money would get concentrated since several women would want/need to preserve NCAA eligebility by declining it.

It’s exactly the same for the men.
