Melanie Bauschke prize money
Melanie Bauschke has been paid $7,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1802nd of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the women's long jump, 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.
Every payment
Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bislett Games 2017 | Long jump | 5th | $2,500 |
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2015 | Long jump | 6th | $2,000 |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2014 | Long jump | 5th | $2,500 |
| All three | Women's long jump | - | $7,000 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $7,000 is three 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.

season running total
2014 is the biggest of them, $2,500 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Melanie Bauschke in 2016, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $7,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Melanie Bauschke won?
$7,000, which ranks 1802nd of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from three paid finishes between 2014 and 2017.
What is Melanie Bauschke's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,500, for finishing 5th in the long jump at the 2017 Bislett Games. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 5th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Melanie Bauschke 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 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.
Is this everything Melanie Bauschke 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 her, priced off the card it published.
