Tonje Angelsen prize money
Tonje Angelsen has been paid $15,583 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1304th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from seven paid finishes in the women's high jump, the best of them 2nd.
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 seven paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $15,583 is seven separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

season running total
2016 is the biggest of them, $4,333 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Tonje Angelsen in 2015, 2017 and 2018, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $15,583.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Tonje Angelsen won?
$15,583, which ranks 1304th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from seven paid finishes between 2012 and 2019.
What is Tonje Angelsen's biggest Diamond League payday?
$4,333, for finishing =2nd in the high jump at the 2016 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 =2nd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Tonje Angelsen 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 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.
Is this everything Tonje Angelsen 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.
