Hugues Fabrice Zango prize money
Hugues Fabrice Zango has been paid $135,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 215th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from 26 paid finishes in the men's triple jump, three of them wins.
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
The 26 paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $135,250 is 26 separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.1% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Hugues Fabrice Zango won?
$135,250, which ranks 215th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from 26 paid finishes between 2017 and 2025.
What is Hugues Fabrice Zango's biggest Diamond League payday?
$12,000, for finishing 2nd in the triple jump at the 2023 Prefontaine Classic. 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 Hugues Fabrice Zango 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 win is worth the same in the men's triple jump 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Hugues Fabrice Zango won?
Three of 26, worth $30,000 between them. Four of his appearances came at a final, which paid $35,000.
How much did Hugues Fabrice Zango win at the 2025 World Championships?
$6,000, from one paid final in Tokyo. The championships pay eight places in every event, $70,000 for a title down to $5,000 for 8th.
How much has Hugues Fabrice Zango won at the World Indoor Championships?
$10,000, from one paid final in Nanjing 2025. An indoor title pays $40,000 and the ladder runs six places deep, down to $4,000 for 6th, the same in every event on the programme and the same for a relay team.
Is this everything Hugues Fabrice Zango earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Championships and World Indoor Championships 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 him, priced off the card it published.
