The sixteen paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $58,083 is sixteen separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.05% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Nicole Büchler won?
$58,083, which ranks 529th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from sixteen paid finishes between 2011 and 2017.
What is Nicole Büchler's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the pole vault at the 2017 Bauhausgalan. 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 Nicole Büchler 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 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Nicole Büchler won?
One of sixteen, worth $10,000 between them. One of her appearance came at a final, which paid $5,000.
Is this everything Nicole Büchler 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.
