yes in endorsements
All.
Because there is a gender bias against female athletes. Not just basketball but sports in general. Male athletes get more endorsements and scholastically colleges have more funding for male athletes as opposed to their female counterparts.
Athletes typically receive medals, trophies, prize money, and endorsements for winning competitions. Additionally, they may receive recognition, fame, and opportunities for sponsorship deals.
Typically no athletes do not get paid after retirement. Although often retired athlete get endorsements along with broadcasting jobs.
Athletes do not get paid for winning any of the medals. It is the honor for them and their country. Some do get endorsements from various companies like Nike, but for most they go home to their normal lives.
Loads!!! i think the question is how many pro athletes smoke !!!

It depends on the country. Most Olympians are paid by their government. US Athlete's are not, in fact, US athletes are volunteers. They make money through sponsorships, endorsements, and in some sports prize money. Unfortunately that can add up to be a boatload of cash or not much at all depending on the sport and the individual athlete.
A giant portion of there shoes are for athletic propose. They aim at people who do sports to see and want to be like these athletes. That's why.
No, they get endorsements when they win medals. Several of the people in games have family that have lost or are loosing their homes due to financial hardship. Some parents have spent not only time but money to make sure their son/daughter get the training and coaches they needed to get to this point. Frankly, they are "tapped" out because of it.
