Benjamin Gföhler prize money
Benjamin Gföhler has been paid $6,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 980th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the men's long jump, the best of them 4th.
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.
Every payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bislett Games 2022 | Long jump | 9th | — |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2021 | Long jump | 5th | $2,500 |
| Allianz Memorial Van Damme 2021 | Long jump | 4th | $2,000 |
| Bauhausgalan 2021 | Long jump | 5th | $1,250 |
| Athletissima 2019 | Long jump | 8th | $1,000 |
| All five | Men's long jump | — | $6,750 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $6,750 is four separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the five starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2021 is the biggest of them, $5,750 from three starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Benjamin Gföhler in 2020 and 2022, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $6,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Benjamin Gföhler won?
$6,750, which ranks 980th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2019 and 2022.
What is Benjamin Gföhler's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,500, for finishing 5th in the long jump at the 2021 Weltklasse Zürich. That is a final, which is why it is the biggest: the final pays two to five times what the same place is worth at a series meeting.
How does the Diamond League decide what Benjamin Gföhler 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 place is worth the same in the men's long jump 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.
Has Benjamin Gföhler 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. He is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Benjamin Gföhler 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.
