Svetlana Shkolina prize money
Svetlana Shkolina has been paid $42,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 711th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from fourteen paid finishes in the women's high jump, five 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.

The fourteen paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $42,250 is fourteen separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.04% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. Six of the 20 starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2010 is the biggest of them, $18,500 from seven starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Svetlana Shkolina in 2013 and 2014, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $42,250.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Svetlana Shkolina won?
$42,250, which ranks 711th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from fourteen paid finishes between 2010 and 2015.
What is Svetlana Shkolina's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 2nd in the high jump at the 2012 Prefontaine Classic. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 2nd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Svetlana Shkolina 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 win is worth the same in the women'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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Svetlana Shkolina won?
Five of 20, worth $0 between them. She has not been paid at a Diamond League final.
Has Svetlana Shkolina ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Six times. The series pays the first eight and the fields run past twenty, so a ninth place is a Diamond League start that paid nothing at all. Those starts are in the result tables on this site either way.
Is this everything Svetlana Shkolina 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.
