Kim Juhl Christensen prize money
Kim Juhl Christensen has been paid $9,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1640th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the men'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.
Every payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting Areva 2012 | Shot put | 3rd | $4,000 |
| Bislett Games 2012 | Shot put | 4th | $3,000 |
| London Grand Prix 2012 | Shot put | 8th | $1,000 |
| Bislett Games 2010 | Shot put | 8th | $1,000 |
| All four | Men's shot put | - | $9,000 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $9,000 is four 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
2012 is the biggest of them, $8,000 from three starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Kim Juhl Christensen in 2011, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $9,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Kim Juhl Christensen won?
$9,000, which ranks 1640th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2010 and 2012.
What is Kim Juhl Christensen's biggest Diamond League payday?
$4,000, for finishing 3rd in the shot put at the 2012 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 3rd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Kim Juhl Christensen 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 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.
Is this everything Kim Juhl Christensen 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.
