Dani Jones prize money
Dani Jones has been paid $1,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1608th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from two paid finishes in the women's 1500 m, the best of them 5th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bauhausgalan 2024 | 1500 m | 5th | $1,250 |
| Xiamen Diamond League 2023 | 1500 m | 8th | $500 |
| All two | Women's 1500 m | — | $1,750 |
The two paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $1,750 is two separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.
Season by season

2024 is the biggest of them, $1,250 from one start. Every season from 2023 to 2024 paid her something. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $1,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Dani Jones won?
$1,750, which ranks 1608th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from two paid finishes between 2023 and 2024.
What is Dani Jones's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,250, for finishing 5th in the 1500 m at the 2024 Bauhausgalan. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 5th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Dani Jones 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 1500 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.
Is this everything Dani Jones 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.
