Paula Sevilla prize money
Paula Sevilla has been paid $3,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1283rd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the women's 400 m and women's 200 m, the best of them 7th.
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 2025 | 400 m | 7th | $2,000 |
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2025 | 200 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2023 | 200 m | 8th | $500 |
| All three | two disciplines | — | $3,500 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $3,500 is three separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.
The World Championships
What Paula Sevilla did in Tokyo, 2025
Paula Sevilla went to the 2025 World Championships in Tokyo on a relay and ran no individual final there. She ran on the Spain team that finished 5th in the women's 4 × 100 metres relay, $12,000 to the federation rather than to any one of the four. The championships page holds all 49 events and the $8,498,000 they paid out.
The World Indoor Championships
What Paula Sevilla did indoors
Paula Sevilla went to the World Indoor Championships on a relay and ran no individual final there. She ran on the Spain team that finished 2nd in the mixed 4 × 400 metres relay in Toruń 2026, $20,000 to the team rather than to any one of the four. She ran on the Spain team that finished 3rd in the women's 4 × 400 metres relay in Toruń 2026, $10,000 to the team rather than to any one of the four. The indoor championships page holds all 53 finals across two editions and the $4,632,000 they paid out.
The World Athletics Relays
What Paula Sevilla ran on, 2025 and 2026
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | TEAM PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Women's 4 × 400 metres relay | 1st | 3:24.13 | $40,000 |
| Women's 4 × 100 metres relay | 2nd | 42.28 | $20,000 |
| Women's 4 × 400 metres relay | 2nd | 3:21.25 | $20,000 |
The World Relays have paid $80,000 for the three teams Paula Sevilla ran on across Guangzhou 2025 and Gaborone 2026, and all of it went to Spain rather than to the four who ran. The $3,500 at the top of this page is what the Diamond League paid her. This is what World Athletics paid a country, and the two are not added together anywhere on the site. She was on the winning team once, which pays $40,000 against $20,000 for second. She ran alongside Jaël Bestué and María Isabel Pérez, and the Diamond League has paid every one of them too. The World Relays page holds all 12 finals across two championships and the $1,067,000 they paid out.

season running total
2025 is the biggest of them, $3,000 from two starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Paula Sevilla in 2024, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $3,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Paula Sevilla won?
$3,500, which ranks 1283rd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from three paid finishes between 2023 and 2025.
What is Paula Sevilla's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,000, for finishing 7th in the Diamond+ 400 m at the 2025 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 7th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Paula Sevilla 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 400 m 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.
What did Paula Sevilla's World Relays teams win?
$80,000, across three paid finals at Guangzhou 2025 and Gaborone 2026. The relays pay a team rather than a runner, so the cheque goes to the federation and not to Paula Sevilla or to any one of the four. A title pays $40,000 and the ladder reaches all eight teams in a final, down to $2,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Paula Sevilla earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. The World Relays 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 her, priced off the card it published.

Indoor championships prize money is the Nanjing 2025 and Toruń 2026 championships, $4,664,000 put up across 53 finals, and the indoor finals are on the mixed 4 × 400 metres relay and women's 4 × 400 metres relay pages.
