Delphine Nkansa prize money
Delphine Nkansa has been paid $3,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2255th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the women's 100 m and women's 200 m, the best of them 7th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2026 | 100 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2026 | 100 m | 9th | - |
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2025 | 100 m | 7th | $1,500 |
| Memorial Van Damme 2023 | 200 m | 7th | $750 |
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2022 | 100 m | 8th | $500 |
| All five | two disciplines | - | $3,750 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $3,750 is four separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the five starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.
The World Athletics Relays
What Delphine Nkansa ran on
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | TEAM PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Women's 4 × 100 metres relay | 6th | 42.85 | $4,000 |
The World Relays have paid $4,000 for the one team Delphine Nkansa ran on in Guangzhou 2025, and all of it went to Belgium rather than to the four who ran. The $3,750 at the top of this page is what the Diamond League paid her. This is what World Athletics paid a country, and the two are not added together anywhere on the site. No team she ran on won its final, and the ladder paid the teams anyway: it reaches all eight teams in a final, $40,000 for a title down to $2,000 for 8th, so reaching one is the run that pays. She ran alongside Rani Rosius, and the Diamond League has paid them too. The World Relays page holds all 12 finals across two championships and the $1,067,000 they paid out.

season running total
2025 is the biggest of them, $1,500 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Delphine Nkansa in 2024, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $3,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Delphine Nkansa won?
$3,750, which ranks 2255th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2022 and 2026.
What is Delphine Nkansa's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,500, for finishing 7th in the 100 m at the 2025 AG Memorial Van Damme. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 7th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Delphine Nkansa 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 100 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.
Has Delphine Nkansa 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.
What did Delphine Nkansa's World Relays teams win?
$4,000, across one paid final in Guangzhou 2025. The relays pay a team rather than a runner, so the cheque goes to the federation and not to Delphine Nkansa or to any one of the four. A title pays $40,000 and the ladder reaches all eight teams in a final, down to $2,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Delphine Nkansa earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Relays 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.
Where to next
The rest of the Diamond League money
Diamond League prize money ranks all 3,683 athletes across the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out. One place above Delphine Nkansa is Claudia Bobocea on $3,750, and one below Elien Vekemans on $3,750. Delphine Nkansa is one of 60 Belgium athletes athletics has paid, and Belgium athletics prize money adds them up to $821,458 across all six competitions. For the event itself, see women's 100 m prize money and women's 200 m prize money. The series has paid out in 20 women's disciplines and Delphine Nkansa has been paid in two of them. The biggest of the rest are women's 100 m hurdles, women's 400 m and women's 800 m. Every meeting she has raced is linked in the table at the top of this page, and Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat has its own page across every edition of it. World Relays prize money is the Guangzhou 2025 and Gaborone 2026 championships, $1,087,000 put up across 12 finals that pay a team and never a runner, and the relay is on the women's 4 × 100 metres relay page.
