Anna Polinari prize money
Anna Polinari has been paid $1,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1794th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from one paid finish in the women's 400 m, and it was 8th.
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.
The payment
Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2026 | 400 m | 8th | $1,000 |
The one paid figure add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $1,000 is one separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.
The World Championships
What Anna Polinari did in Tokyo, 2025
Anna Polinari went to the 2025 World Championships in Tokyo on a relay and ran no individual final there. She ran on the Italy team that finished 7th in the mixed 4 × 400 metres relay, $6,000 to the federation rather than to any one of the four. She ran on the Italy team that finished 8th in the women's 4 × 400 metres relay, $4,000 to the federation rather than to any one of the four. The championships page holds all 49 events and the $8,498,000 they paid out.
The World Athletics Relays
What Anna Polinari ran on, 2025 and 2026
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | TEAM PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Women's 4 × 400 metres relay | 5th | 3:26.40 | $6,000 |
| Mixed 4 × 400 metres relay | 5th | 3:10.52 | $6,000 |
The World Relays have paid $12,000 for the two teams Anna Polinari ran on across Guangzhou 2025 and Gaborone 2026, and all of it went to Italy rather than to the four who ran. The $1,000 at the top of this page is what the Diamond League paid her. This is what World Athletics paid a country, and the two are not added together anywhere on the site. No team she ran on won its final, and the ladder paid the teams anyway: it reaches all eight teams in a final, $40,000 for a title down to $2,000 for 8th, so reaching one is the run that pays. She ran alongside Vladimir Aceti and Eloisa Coiro, and the Diamond League has paid every one of them too. The World Relays page holds all 12 finals across two championships and the $1,067,000 they paid out.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Anna Polinari won?
$1,000, which ranks 1794th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from one paid finish in 2026.
What is Anna Polinari's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,000, for finishing 8th in the Diamond+ 400 m at the 2026 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 8th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Anna Polinari 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 place is worth the same in the women's 400 m 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.
What did Anna Polinari's World Relays teams win?
$12,000, across two paid finals at Guangzhou 2025 and Gaborone 2026. The relays pay a team rather than a runner, so the cheque goes to the federation and not to Anna Polinari or to any one of the four. A title pays $40,000 and the ladder reaches all eight teams in a final, down to $2,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Anna Polinari earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. The World Relays money above is separate money from a separate payer, and none of it is added together here. It holds 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.
Where to next
The rest of the Diamond League money
Diamond League prize money ranks all 2,112 athletes across the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out. One place above Anna Polinari is Anna Gryc on $1,000, and one below Anthony Rotich on $1,000. Anna Polinari is one of 69 Italy athletes athletics has paid, and Italy athletics prize money adds them up to $2,130,250 across all six competitions. For the event itself, see women's 400 m prize money. The series has paid out in 20 women's disciplines and Anna Polinari has been paid in one of them. The biggest of the rest are women's 100 m, women's 100 m hurdles and women's 800 m. Every meeting she has raced is linked in the table at the top of this page, and Golden Gala Pietro Mennea has its own page across every edition of it. Away from the series, World Championships prize money is Tokyo 2025, $8,498,000 paid eight places deep in every event, and the full finals are on the mixed 4 × 400 metres relay and women's 4 × 400 metres relay pages. World Relays prize money is the Guangzhou 2025 and Gaborone 2026 championships, $1,087,000 put up across 12 finals that pay a team and never a runner, and the relays are on the women's 4 × 400 metres relay and mixed 4 × 400 metres relay pages.
