Jessica Woodard prize money
Jessica Woodard has been paid $4,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1150th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the women's shot put, 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.

Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2024 | Shot put | 8th | $500 |
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2023 | Shot put | 3rd | $3,500 |
| Meeting de Paris 2023 | Shot put | 7th | $750 |
| Memorial Van Damme 2023 | Shot put | 9th | — |
| All four | Women's shot put | — | $4,750 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $4,750 is three separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the four starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Jessica Woodard won?
$4,750, which ranks 1150th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from three paid finishes between 2023 and 2024.
What is Jessica Woodard's biggest Diamond League payday?
$3,500, for finishing 3rd in the shot put at the 2023 Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat. 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 Jessica Woodard 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 shot put 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 Jessica Woodard 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. She is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Jessica Woodard earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 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.
