Teema: Forbes reporter inquiry on Winter Olympics

Hi there. I'm a sports reporter at Forbes in the U.S., and each Olympics, we cover the financial compensation that is available to athletes from the national Olympic committees and sports ministries in their home countries. (You can see our 2022 article as an example here and our 2024 article here.) I am writing to confirm whether the medal bonuses listed here are correct and up to date: https://www.eok.ee/activities/medal-bonuses

I also wanted to ask whether Estonian athletes who win multiple medals earn multiple bonuses. (For instance, if an athlete wins three gold medals, do they receive 100 000 EUR or 300 000 EUR?)

Thanks so much for any insight you can share! I greatly appreciate your consideration and hope to feature you in our coverage of the Winter Olympics.
