Yulimar Rojas prize money
Yulimar Rojas has been paid $212,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 32nd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from fifteen paid finishes in the women's triple jump and women's long jump, twelve 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 fifteen paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $212,000 is fifteen separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.4% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the sixteen starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2023 is the biggest of them, $60,000 from five starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Yulimar Rojas in 2020, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $212,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Yulimar Rojas won?
$212,000, which ranks 32nd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from fifteen paid finishes between 2019 and 2023.
What is Yulimar Rojas's biggest Diamond League payday?
$30,000, for finishing 1st in the triple jump at the 2023 Prefontaine Classic. That is a final, which is why it is the biggest: the final pays two to five times what the same place is worth at a series meeting.
How does the Diamond League decide what Yulimar Rojas 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 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Yulimar Rojas won?
Twelve of sixteen, worth $180,000 between them. Four of her appearances came at a final, which paid $110,000.
Has Yulimar Rojas ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
One time. 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. She is in the result table on this site either way.
How much did Yulimar Rojas win at the 2025 World Championships?
$22,000, 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.
How much has Yulimar Rojas won at the World Indoor Championships?
$20,000, from one paid final in Toruń 2026. An indoor title pays $40,000 and the ladder runs six places deep, down to $4,000 for 6th, the same in every event on the programme and the same for a relay team.
Is this everything Yulimar Rojas earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. The World Championships and World Indoor 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.
Where to next
