Angelica Bengtsson prize money
Angelica Bengtsson has been paid $21,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 567th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from seven paid finishes in the women's pole vault, one of them a win.
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.

| Bislett Games 2017 | Pole vault | 4th | $3,000 |
| All eight | Women's pole vault | — | $21,500 |
The seven paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $21,500 is seven separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.04% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the eight starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2019 is the biggest of them, $12,000 from four starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Angelica Bengtsson in 2020, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $21,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Angelica Bengtsson won?
$21,500, which ranks 567th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from seven paid finishes between 2017 and 2021.
What is Angelica Bengtsson's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the pole vault at the 2019 Golden Gala Pietro Mennea. 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 Angelica Bengtsson gets paid?
Entirely by where she 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 women's pole vault 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 Angelica Bengtsson won?
One of eight, worth $10,000 between them. She has not been paid at a Diamond League final.
Has Angelica Bengtsson ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
One time. The series pays the first eight and the fields run past twenty, so a ninth place is a Diamond League start that paid nothing at all. She is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Angelica Bengtsson 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 her, priced off the card it published.
