Caisja Chandler prize money
Caisja Chandler has been paid $3,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2364th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the women's 200 m, 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 she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2024 | 200 m | 4th | $2,000 |
| Xiamen Diamond League 2024 | 200 m | 8th | $500 |
| Diamond League Shanghai 2024 | 200 m | 8th | $500 |
| All three | Women's 200 m | - | $3,000 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $3,000 is three separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.
The World Athletics Relays
What Caisja Chandler ran on
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | TEAM PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Women's 4 × 100 metres relay | 4th | 42.38 | $8,000 |
The World Relays have paid $8,000 for the one team Caisja Chandler ran on in Guangzhou 2025, and all of it went to the United States rather than to the four who ran. The $3,000 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 Mikiah Brisco, Kayla White and Twanisha Terry, 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 Caisja Chandler won?
$3,000, which ranks 2364th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from three paid finishes in 2024.
What is Caisja Chandler's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,000, for finishing 4th in the 200 m at the 2024 Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 4th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Caisja Chandler 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 200 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 Caisja Chandler's World Relays teams win?
$8,000, across one paid final in Guangzhou 2025. The relays pay a team rather than a runner, so the cheque goes to the federation and not to Caisja Chandler 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 Caisja Chandler earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 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.
