Hendrik Gruber prize money
Hendrik Gruber has been paid $10,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1564th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from five paid finishes in the men's pole vault, the best of them 4th.
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 he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2017 | Pole vault | =7th | $1,250 |
| Qatar Athletic 2013 | Pole vault | 5th | $2,500 |
| Shanghai Golden Grand Prix 2012 | Pole vault | 6th | $2,000 |
| Shanghai Diamond League 2010 | Pole vault | 4th | $3,000 |
| Athletissima 2010 | Pole vault | 7th | $1,500 |
| All five | Men's pole vault | - | $10,250 |
The five paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $10,250 is five 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.

season running total
2010 is the biggest of them, $4,500 from two starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Hendrik Gruber in 2011, 2014, 2015 and 2016, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $10,250.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Hendrik Gruber won?
$10,250, which ranks 1564th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from five paid finishes between 2010 and 2017.
What is Hendrik Gruber's biggest Diamond League payday?
$3,000, for finishing 4th in the pole vault at the 2010 Shanghai Diamond League. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 4th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Hendrik Gruber gets paid?
Entirely by where he 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 men's pole vault 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 Hendrik Gruber 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 him, priced off the card it published.
