Caterine Ibargüen prize money
Caterine Ibargüen has been paid $61,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 250th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from ten paid finishes in the women's triple jump and women's long jump, five 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.

The ten paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $61,000 is ten separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.1% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Caterine Ibargüen won?
$61,000, which ranks 250th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from ten paid finishes between 2018 and 2021.
What is Caterine Ibargüen's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the long jump at the 2019 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 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?
Five of ten, worth $50,000 between them. One of her appearance came at a final, which paid $2,000.
Is this everything Caterine Ibargüen 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 her, priced off the card it published.
