Mark Hollis prize money
Mark Hollis has been paid $7,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1740th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the men's pole vault, the best of them 4th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Belgacom Memorial Van Damme 2014 | Pole vault | 4th | $3,000 |
| Meeting Areva 2014 | Pole vault | 6th | $2,000 |
| Shanghai Golden Grand Prix 2012 | Pole vault | 8th | $1,000 |
| Qatar Athletic Super Grand Prix 2011 | Pole vault | =5th | $1,750 |
| All four | Men's pole vault | - | $7,750 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $7,750 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.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Mark Hollis won?
$7,750, which ranks 1740th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2011 and 2014.
What is Mark Hollis's biggest Diamond League payday?
$3,000, for finishing 4th in the pole vault at the 2014 Belgacom Memorial Van Damme. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 4th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Mark Hollis 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 pole vault 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 Mark Hollis 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.
