The pivotal 2024 World Athletics Indoor Championship concluded in Glasgow, Scotland hosting over 650 athletes who competed for twenty-six athletic disciplines. Returning every two years and coinciding with the road to Paris this year, the three-day raw athleticism went underway in the Commonwealth Arena.

It’s a win-win scenario: a highlight on the resume distinguishing the finest athletes heading to the 2024 Summer Olympics with wealthy honors. Now, coming off with a flurry of gold at the World Athletics Indoor Championships, a Dutch world record holder might have earned the dreamy lottery!

24-year-old Femke Bol ended the World Athletics Indoor Champs on a victorious note clocking 49.17s in the indoor 400m. The Netherlands-born athlete broke her own indoor world record from two years back where she clocked 49.17s. Just when the world was settling in with her three-day win streak, an update was shared on Instagram by Citius Mag dissecting Bol’s earnings with the caption, “Not too shabby of a trip to Glasgow for @femke_bol!”

The breakdown of the prize money published by World Athletics shows an impressive total of US$2,464,000 offered across the 2024 Glasgow Indoor Champs. High stakes dangled with a $50,000 performance bonus for athletes who set new world records in the event. In addition, the standard distribution of prize money started with $40,000, $20,000, and $10,000 for podium finishers. Followed by $8000, $6000, and $4000 reward until sixth place finish. Unaware of becoming the most wealthy prized athlete, Bol reflects on her improvement post-run.

Femke Bol reflects on new world record

After dominating the Budapest World Championships last year, Femke Bol entered the Glasgow event with many eyes awaiting her champion finish. Bol understood the assignment and delivered the best performances every day in the recent Indoor Champs. Later speaking with Olympics.com, Bol said, “I knew I needed a really good race to win this gold. I knew I had to open fast, and once you open fast you have to keep going because you’ll die anyway.” Bol’s record has now raised the standard while fans look out for an exciting matchup at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
