Maria Żodzik prize money
Maria Żodzik has been paid $19,667 by the Diamond League, which ranks 600th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from seven paid finishes in the women's high jump, one of them a win.
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.

| Meeting de Paris 2025 | High jump | 9th | — |
| All eight | Women's high jump | — | $19,667 |
The seven paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $19,667 is seven separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.04% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the eight starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Maria Żodzik won?
$19,667, which ranks 600th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from seven paid finishes between 2025 and 2026.
What is Maria Żodzik's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,667, for finishing =1st in the high jump at the 2025 Athletissima. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for =1st and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Maria Żodzik 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 win is worth the same in the women's high jump 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Maria Żodzik won?
One of eight, worth $6,667 between them. She has not been paid at a Diamond League final.
Has Maria Żodzik ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
One time. 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. She is in the result table on this site either way.
How much did Maria Żodzik win at the 2025 World Championships?
$35,000, from one paid final in Tokyo. The championships pay eight places in every event, $70,000 for a title down to $5,000 for 8th.
How much has Maria Żodzik won at the World Indoor Championships?
$6,000, from one paid final in Toruń 2026. An indoor title pays $40,000 and the ladder runs six places deep, down to $4,000 for 6th, the same in every event on the programme and the same for a relay team.
Is this everything Maria Żodzik earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. The World Championships and World Indoor Championships money above is separate money from a separate payer, and none of it is added together here. It holds 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.
