Jaroslav Bába prize money
Jaroslav Bába has been paid $33,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 836th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from fourteen paid finishes in the men's high jump, one of them a win.
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.

The fourteen paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $33,750 is fourteen separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.03% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

season running total
2011 is the biggest of them, $14,500 from four starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Jaroslav Bába in 2013 and 2014, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $33,750.

Frequently asked questions

$33,750, which ranks 836th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from fourteen paid finishes between 2010 and 2016.
What is Jaroslav Bába's biggest Diamond League payday?
$8,000, for finishing =1st in the high jump at the 2011 Meeting Areva. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for =1st and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Jaroslav Bába 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 high 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 Jaroslav Bába won?
One of fourteen, worth $8,000 between them. He has not been paid at a Diamond League final.
Is this everything Jaroslav Bába 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.
