Monae' Nichols prize money
Monae' Nichols has been paid $106,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 291st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from ten paid finishes in the women's long 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 ten paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $106,500 is ten separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.09% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. Two of the twelve 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 Monae' Nichols won?
$106,500, which ranks 291st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from ten paid finishes between 2024 and 2026.
What is Monae' Nichols's biggest Diamond League payday?
$60,000, for finishing 1st in the Diamond+ long jump at the 2026 AG Memorial Van Damme. 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 Monae' Nichols 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 win 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Monae' Nichols won?
Two of twelve, worth $70,000 between them. Three of her appearances came at a final, which paid $76,000.
Has Monae' Nichols 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.
Is this everything Monae' Nichols 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.
