Yes, but not by the International Olympic Committee. It's the various national sports organizations (including the local Olympic Committees) that give the athlethes prize money for medals won.
no
Because that was how the tradition was. They did not compete, should we give them medals for that?
they give medals gold,silver,bronze and trophies
bronze or 3rd.4-etc. will not give the medal
Called the "greatest Greco-Roman wrestler of all time," Alexander Karelin (Александр Александрович Карелин), from Russia, won four Olympic Wrestling medals (3 gold, 1 silver). He had a thirteen-year winning streak (six years where he did not give up a single point). He completed in the heaviest weight class.
there are 3 medals to be won per competition. the winner gets gold, runner up gets silver and third place gets bronze. this year they are also awarding platinum medals to the top 8 overall competitors. if ur a good sport they'll give u a partisipation ribbon.
How much Western Union will charge to send money from Egypt to Russia will depend on the amount of money you wish to send. Without that information, it is not possible to give you the cost.
The International Olympic Committee does not give a cash reward along with the medals. Rather, the Olympic Committee in the athlete's home country, may reward the athlete for their success. A US gold medal winner for example receives $25,000 for a gold medal. Italy offers $182,000, Ghana offers $20,000.
