Marquis Dendy prize money
Marquis Dendy has been paid $71,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 444th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from fifteen paid finishes in the men's long jump and men's triple jump, two of them wins.
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 fifteen paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $71,250 is fifteen separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.06% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the sixteen starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2015 is the biggest of them, $24,000 from four starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Marquis Dendy in 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2020, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $71,250.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Marquis Dendy won?
$71,250, which ranks 444th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from fifteen paid finishes between 2015 and 2025.
What is Marquis Dendy's biggest Diamond League payday?
$12,000, for finishing 2nd in the long jump at the 2022 Weltklasse Zürich. That is a final, which is why it is the biggest: the final pays two to five times what the same place is worth at a series meeting.
How does the Diamond League decide what Marquis Dendy 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 win is worth the same in the men's long 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 Marquis Dendy won?
Two of sixteen, worth $20,000 between them. Two of his appearances came at a final, which paid $16,000.
Has Marquis Dendy 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. That start is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Marquis Dendy 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.
