Line Kloster prize money
Line Kloster has been paid $3,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1297th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the women's 400 m hurdles, the best of them 6th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bislett Games 2023 | 400 m hurdles | 8th | $500 |
| Herculis 2022 | 400 m hurdles | 6th | $1,000 |
| Bislett Games 2022 | 400 m hurdles | 7th | $750 |
| Bislett Games 2018 | 400 m hurdles | 8th | $1,000 |
| All four | Women's 400 m hurdles | — | $3,250 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $3,250 is four 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.

season running total
2022 is the biggest of them, $1,750 from two starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Line Kloster in 2019, 2020 and 2021, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $3,250.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Line Kloster won?
$3,250, which ranks 1297th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2018 and 2023.
What is Line Kloster's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,000, for finishing 6th in the 400 m hurdles at the 2022 Herculis. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 6th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Line Kloster 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 400 m hurdles 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 Line Kloster 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.
