Ruth Ndoumbe prize money
Ruth Ndoumbe has been paid $2,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2604th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from one paid finish in the women's triple jump, and it was 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.

Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| British Athletics Grand Prix 2014 | Triple jump | 5th | $2,500 |
The one paid figure add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $2,500 is one separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% 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 Ruth Ndoumbe won?
$2,500, which ranks 2604th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from one paid finish in 2014.
What is Ruth Ndoumbe's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,500, for finishing 5th in the triple jump at the 2014 British Athletics Grand Prix. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 5th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Ruth Ndoumbe 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 triple 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 Ruth Ndoumbe 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.
