IAAF gets biggest share of television money from London 2012
05.05.2010 World
Despite calls for change by swimming‘s governing body, international sports bodies agreed to maintain the revenue-sharing formula that will provide track and field (fortunately) with the biggest share of television money from the 2012 London Olympics.
Under the formula, the International Association of Athletics Federations will remain as the undisputed No. 1 sport in the money ranking and receive 35.77 million USD. That‘s up from the 29 million USD the IAAF received from the 2008 Beijing Games and nearly twice as much as FINA and the other second-tier federations will get.
