Lovisa Lindh prize money
Lovisa Lindh has been paid $16,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1260th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from seven paid finishes in the women's 800 m, the best of them 2nd.
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 seven paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $16,750 is seven 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. Four of the eleven starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2017 is the biggest of them, $11,000 from three starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Lovisa Lindh in 2018, 2020 and 2022, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $16,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Lovisa Lindh won?
$16,750, which ranks 1260th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from seven paid finishes between 2017 and 2022.
What is Lovisa Lindh's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 2nd in the 800 m at the 2017 Bauhausgalan. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 2nd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Lovisa Lindh 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.
Has Lovisa Lindh ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Four times. 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. Those starts are in the result tables on this site either way.
Is this everything Lovisa Lindh 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.
