Maruša Mišmaš-Zrimšek prize money
Maruša Mišmaš-Zrimšek has been paid $6,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1022nd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from five paid finishes in the women's 3000 m steeplechase, the best of them 5th.
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.

Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Prefontaine Classic 2023 | 3000 m steeplechase | 6th | $2,000 |
| Doha Diamond League 2023 | 3000 m steeplechase | 5th | $1,250 |
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2023 | 3000 m steeplechase | 6th | $1,000 |
| Athletissima 2023 | 3000 m steeplechase | 6th | $1,000 |
| Doha Diamond League 2021 | 3000 m steeplechase | 6th | $1,000 |
| All five | Women's 3000 m steeplechase | — | $6,250 |
The five paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $6,250 is five 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
2023 is the biggest of them, $5,250 from four starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Maruša Mišmaš-Zrimšek in 2022, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $6,250.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Maruša Mišmaš-Zrimšek won?
$6,250, which ranks 1022nd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from five paid finishes between 2021 and 2023.
What is Maruša Mišmaš-Zrimšek's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,000, for finishing 6th in the 3000 m steeplechase at the 2023 Prefontaine Classic. 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 Maruša Mišmaš-Zrimšek 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 3000 m steeplechase 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 Maruša Mišmaš-Zrimšek 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.
