Caterine Ibargüen prize money
Caterine Ibargüen has been paid $501,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 5th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from 49 paid finishes in the women's triple jump and women's long jump, 37 of them wins.
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
The 49 paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $501,000 is 49 separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.4% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

season running total

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Caterine Ibargüen won?
$501,000, which ranks 5th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from 49 paid finishes between 2011 and 2021.
What is Caterine Ibargüen's biggest Diamond League payday?
$50,000, for finishing 1st in the triple jump at the 2018 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 Caterine Ibargüen 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 triple 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 Caterine Ibargüen won?
37 of 49, worth $450,000 between them. Four of her appearances came at a final, which paid $112,000.
Is this everything Caterine Ibargüen 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 her, priced off the card it published.
