Andreas Hofmann prize money
Andreas Hofmann has been paid $40,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 372nd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from six paid finishes in the men's javelin throw, two of them wins.
The Diamond League pays by finishing place and nothing else. A published card sets what first through eighth is worth, the same figure in every discipline at that meeting, and ninth pays nothing.

Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| IAAF Diamond League Shanghai 2019 | Javelin throw | 1st | $10,000 |
| Herculis 2019 | Javelin throw | 1st | $10,000 |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2019 | Javelin throw | 3rd | $10,000 |
| Oslo Bislett Games 2019 | Javelin throw | 4th | $3,000 |

| Doha Diamond League 2018 | Javelin throw | 3rd | $4,000 |
| All six | Men's javelin throw | — | $40,000 |
The six paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $40,000 is six separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.07% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Andreas Hofmann won?
$40,000, which ranks 372nd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from six paid finishes between 2018 and 2019.
What is Andreas Hofmann's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the javelin throw at the 2019 IAAF Diamond League Shanghai. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 1st and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Andreas Hofmann gets paid?
Entirely by where he finishes. The series publishes one rate card a season and applies it to every discipline at every meeting, so a win is worth the same in the men's javelin throw as it is in the shot put on the same afternoon. Eight places are paid and ninth pays nothing. There is no bonus for a record and no share of a gate.
How many Diamond League meetings has Andreas Hofmann won?
Two of six, worth $20,000 between them. One of his appearance came at a final, which paid $10,000.
Is this everything Andreas Hofmann earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. It holds no championship prize money, no national federation payment, no appearance fee and no sponsorship. What it does hold is every dollar the series itself paid him, priced off the card it published.
