Menno Vloon prize money
Menno Vloon has been paid $46,667 by the Diamond League, which ranks 660th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from fifteen paid finishes in the men's pole vault, the best of them 3rd.
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 $46,667 is fifteen separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.04% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. Two of the 17 starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Menno Vloon won?
$46,667, which ranks 660th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from fifteen paid finishes between 2021 and 2026.
What is Menno Vloon's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 3rd in the Diamond+ pole vault at the 2025 Xiamen Diamond League. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 3rd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Menno Vloon 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.
Has Menno Vloon ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Two times. 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. Those starts are in the result tables on this site either way.
How much did Menno Vloon win at the 2025 World Championships?
$6,000, from one paid final in Tokyo. The championships pay eight places in every event, $70,000 for a title down to $5,000 for 8th.
How much has Menno Vloon won at the World Indoor Championships?
$8,000, from one paid final in Nanjing 2025. An indoor title pays $40,000 and the ladder runs six places deep, down to $4,000 for 6th, the same in every event on the programme and the same for a relay team.
Is this everything Menno Vloon earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Championships and World Indoor Championships money above is separate money from a separate payer, and none of it is added together here. It holds 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.
