Géraldine Ruckstuhl prize money
Géraldine Ruckstuhl has been paid $2,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2720th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from one paid finish in the women's javelin throw, and it was 8th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weltklasse Zürich 2019 | Javelin throw | 9th | - |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2018 | Javelin throw | 8th | $2,000 |
| All two | Women's javelin throw | - | $2,000 |
The one paid figure add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $2,000 is one 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 two starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.
Season by season
2018 to 2019, in the order it was won
season running total
2018 is the biggest of them, $2,000 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Géraldine Ruckstuhl in 2019, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $2,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Géraldine Ruckstuhl won?
$2,000, which ranks 2720th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from one paid finish between 2018 and 2019.
What is Géraldine Ruckstuhl's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,000, for finishing 8th in the javelin throw 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 Géraldine Ruckstuhl 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 javelin throw 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 Géraldine Ruckstuhl 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.
Is this everything Géraldine Ruckstuhl 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.
