Best Answer

That will be based on their total income for the year, as well as the country.

The US Olympic committee pays an award bonus of $25,000 for a gold medal. That is taxable income. Someone like Michael Phelps with a huge income from endorsements is going to pay a higher tax rate than someone getting a single medal at their first Olympics. With no other income, a medal winner would probably pay less than $2,000 of it in taxes. Someone like Phelps could pay as much as 40%, but the reality is that a good tax accountant will take advantage of the appropriate methods of reducing taxes.
