Christina Honsel prize money
Christina Honsel has been paid $28,167 by the Diamond League, which ranks 490th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from nine paid finishes in the women's high 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.

The nine paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $28,167 is nine separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.05% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. Three of the twelve starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Christina Honsel won?
$28,167, which ranks 490th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from nine paid finishes between 2024 and 2025.
What is Christina Honsel's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,667, for finishing =1st in the high jump at the 2025 Athletissima. 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 Christina Honsel 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 high 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 Christina Honsel won?
One of twelve, worth $6,667 between them. One of her appearance came at a final, which paid $2,500.
Has Christina Honsel ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Three times. 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. She are in the result tables on this site either way.
How much did Christina Honsel win at the 2025 World Championships?
$5,500, from one paid final in Tokyo. The championships pay eight places in every event, $70,000 for a title down to $5,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Christina Honsel earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. The World Championships 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.
