Helen Schlachtenhaufen prize money
Helen Schlachtenhaufen has been paid $6,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1847th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the women's mile and women's 1500 m, the best of them 3rd.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Xiamen Diamond League 2023 | 1500 m | 10th | - |
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2022 | 1500 m | 10th | - |
| Anniversary Games 2021 | Mile | 3rd | $3,500 |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2021 | 1500 m | 5th | $2,500 |
| Prefontaine Classic 2021 | 1500 m | 8th | $500 |
| Müller Grand Prix Birmingham 2019 | Mile | 10th | - |
| All six | two disciplines | - | $6,500 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $6,500 is three separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. Three of the six starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2021 is the biggest of them, $6,500 from three starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Helen Schlachtenhaufen in 2019, 2020, 2022 and 2023, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $6,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Helen Schlachtenhaufen won?
$6,500, which ranks 1847th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from three paid finishes between 2019 and 2023.
What is Helen Schlachtenhaufen's biggest Diamond League payday?
$3,500, for finishing 3rd in the mile at the 2021 Anniversary Games. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 3rd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Helen Schlachtenhaufen 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 mile 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 Helen Schlachtenhaufen 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. Those starts are in the result tables on this site either way.
Is this everything Helen Schlachtenhaufen 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.
