Kate Dennison prize money
Kate Dennison has been paid $9,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1601st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from five paid finishes in the women'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.

The five paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $9,750 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.

Frequently asked questions

$9,750, which ranks 1601st 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 2012.
What is Kate Dennison's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,750, for finishing =4th in the pole vault at the 2012 Qatar Athletic Super Grand Prix. 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 Kate Dennison 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 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 Kate Dennison 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.
