Lenka Masná prize money
Lenka Masná has been paid $8,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1719th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the women's 800 m, 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 she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shanghai Golden Grand Prix 2015 | 800 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| Qatar Athletic Super Grand Prix 2014 | 800 m | 3rd | $4,000 |
| Shanghai Golden Grand Prix 2011 | 800 m | 4th | $3,000 |
| All three | Women's 800 m | - | $8,000 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $8,000 is three 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
2014 is the biggest of them, $4,000 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Lenka Masná in 2012 and 2013, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $8,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Lenka Masná won?
$8,000, which ranks 1719th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from three paid finishes between 2011 and 2015.
What is Lenka Masná's biggest Diamond League payday?
$4,000, for finishing 3rd in the 800 m at the 2014 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 3rd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Lenka Masná 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 800 m 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 Lenka Masná 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.
