How much money did golf’s Olympic medal-winners make? It’s complicated
Olympic Golfers Vie for Medals and National Payouts
Unlike other sports, golf medalists at the Olympics do not earn prize money from the International Olympic Committee. Instead, payouts vary based on each country’s policies, making financial rewards vastly different. Some countries offer generous cash bonuses, while others provide modest rewards or none at all. Thus, a golfer’s financial compensation depends heavily on their nationality.
