Norbert Kobielski prize money
Norbert Kobielski has been paid $25,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 985th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from six paid finishes in the men's high jump, the best of them 2nd.
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.

| Prefontaine Classic 2023 | High jump | 2nd | $12,000 |

| Birmingham Diamond League 2022 | High jump | 3rd | $3,500 |
| All six | Men's high jump | - | $25,750 |
The six paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $25,750 is six separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.02% 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 Norbert Kobielski won?
$25,750, which ranks 985th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from six paid finishes between 2022 and 2024.
What is Norbert Kobielski's biggest Diamond League payday?
$12,000, for finishing 2nd in the high jump at the 2023 Prefontaine Classic. 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 Norbert Kobielski 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 high 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 Norbert Kobielski 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.
