Carey McLeod prize money
Carey McLeod has been paid $27,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 955th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from eight paid finishes in the men's long jump, 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.
Every payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |

| London Athletics Meet 2025 | Long jump | 3rd | $4,000 |
| Athletissima 2025 | Long jump | 4th | $3,000 |
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2025 | Long jump | 5th | $2,500 |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2025 | Long jump | 5th | $2,500 |
| Doha Diamond League 2024 | Long jump | 1st | $10,000 |
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2024 | Long jump | 5th | $2,500 |
| Diamond League Shanghai 2024 | Long jump | 4th | $2,000 |
| Athletissima 2024 | Long jump | 7th | $750 |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2023 | Long jump | 9th | - |
| All nine | Men's long jump | - | $27,250 |
The eight paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $27,250 is eight separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.02% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the nine starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.
The World Indoor Championships
What Carey McLeod did indoors
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|

Carey McLeod stood in one World Indoor Championships final and finished outside the money. The championships pay six places, $40,000 for a title down to $4,000 for 6th, and nothing at all below that. The indoor championships page holds all 53 finals across two editions and the $4,632,000 they paid out.

season running total
2024 is the biggest of them, $15,250 from four starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Carey McLeod in 2023, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $27,250.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Carey McLeod won?
$27,250, which ranks 955th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from eight paid finishes between 2023 and 2025.
What is Carey McLeod's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the long jump at the 2024 Doha Diamond League. 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 Carey McLeod 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 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Carey McLeod won?
One of nine, worth $10,000 between them. Two of his appearances came at a final, which paid $5,000.
Has Carey McLeod 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. That start is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Carey McLeod earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 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.
