Paweł Wojciechowski prize money
Paweł Wojciechowski has been paid $105,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 297th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from 29 paid finishes in the men's pole vault, 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.
Every payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
The 29 paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $105,500 is 29 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.
