Maykel Massó prize money
Maykel Massó has been paid $28,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 935th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from seven paid finishes in the men's long 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.

Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting de Paris 2023 | Long jump | 6th | $1,000 |
| Herculis 2022 | Long jump | 1st | $10,000 |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2022 | Long jump | 3rd | $7,000 |
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2022 | Long jump | 3rd | $3,500 |
| Kamila Skolimowska Memorial 2022 | Long jump | 3rd | $3,500 |
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2018 | Long jump | 8th | $1,000 |
| Müller Grand Prix Birmingham 2017 | Long jump | 5th | $2,500 |
| All seven | Men's long jump | - | $28,500 |
The seven paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $28,500 is seven separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.03% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

season running total
2022 is the biggest of them, $24,000 from four starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Maykel Massó in 2019, 2020 and 2021, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $28,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Maykel Massó won?
$28,500, which ranks 935th 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 2023.
What is Maykel Massó's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the long jump at the 2022 Herculis. 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 Maykel Massó 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 Maykel Massó won?
One of seven, worth $10,000 between them. One of his appearance came at a final, which paid $7,000.
Is this everything Maykel Massó 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.
