It\u2019s a way of saying thank you and showing appreciation for their dedication and achievements for our country, and for helping to build national pride.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cFor swimmers like <strong>Mollie O\u2019Callaghan<\/strong> and others who achieved multiple medals, they will receive bonuses for each, and every medal earned.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">O\u2019Callaghan is set to pick up the biggest bonus of $48,750, after she starred for Australia, retaining her women\u2019s 200m freestyle title, finishing second in the 100m and as a part of the gold-medal-winning 4&#215;100 and 4x200m freestyle relays and silver medal winning women\u2019s medley relay<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Kaylee McKeown<\/strong> will also pocket a hefty sum of cash. The Olympic champion picked up where she left off in Paris, claiming two gold medals in the 100m and 200m backstroke events, and will pocket $43,750, after also being a part of the women\u2019s team that took silver in the 4x100m medley relay, while open water star <strong>Moesha Johnson<\/strong> will net $40,000 for her 5 and 10km marathon double.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Olympic relay champion <strong>Lani Pallister<\/strong> will also bank $30,000, after she joined O\u2019Callaghan to clinch gold in the 4x200m freestyle relay, while she also took silver in the women\u2019s 800m freestyle and bronze in the 1500m freestyle &#8211; in the best meet of her life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The two fastest swimmers in the world, <strong>Cameron McEvoy<\/strong> and
