Pauline Hondema prize money
Pauline Hondema has been paid $2,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1365th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from two paid finishes in the women's long jump, the best of them 5th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shanghai Diamond League 2026 | Long jump | 7th | $1,500 |
| Diamond League Shanghai 2024 | Long jump | 5th | $1,250 |
| All two | Women's long jump | — | $2,750 |
The two paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $2,750 is two 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.

season running total
2026 is the biggest of them, $1,500 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Pauline Hondema in 2025, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $2,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Pauline Hondema won?
$2,750, which ranks 1365th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from two paid finishes between 2024 and 2026.
What is Pauline Hondema's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,500, for finishing 7th in the long jump at the 2026 Shanghai 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 7th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Pauline Hondema 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 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 much did Pauline Hondema 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.
Is this everything Pauline Hondema earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. The World 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 her, priced off the card it published.
