DIAMOND LEAGUE · MEN · 36 RUNNINGS

Men's long jump prize money

The Diamond League has paid $1,287,500 in the men's long jump, to 69 athletes across 36 runnings of it, from 2019 to 2026. Miltiadis Tentoglou has taken more of it than anyone, $261,500.

The series pays by finishing place and by nothing else, so a win here is worth what a win in any other discipline is worth: $10,000 at a 2026 series meeting, eight places paid, and nothing for ninth. Seven of the 36 runnings were at the series final, which pays on its own ladder: $30,000 for the win at the 2026 final. Five of the 36 runnings were Diamond+, which pays double.

What the men's long jump paid each season

season running total

The line is the running total. A season's figure is the rate multiplied by how many meetings put the discipline on, so the columns move with the programme rather than with who turned up: 2026 ran it six times and 2019 five times. Nobody has ever shared the win in it, so every figure in the win column is one athlete's cheque.

Every meeting pays the same ladder, so this column ranks how often each one put the discipline on rather than how generous it is. Weltklasse Zürich has run it seven times and paid $364,000 for it. Each meeting links to everything it has paid across every edition of it.

One column per ladder, and none of them is specific to this discipline: the men's long jump is paid on the same card as the 100 m and the shot put at the same meeting. There is no appearance money in any of it, nothing for a record, and nothing at all for ninth place. The Diamond+ columns are the five of 36 runnings where the series doubled the discipline's rate for the day.

Frequently asked questions

How much prize money does the Diamond League pay in the men's long jump?

$1,287,500 across 36 runnings of it, to 69 athletes from 32 countries. That is 2.4% of everything the series has paid, and the 27th biggest of the 41 disciplines on this site.

What does a win in the men's long jump pay?

$10,000, and double that at a meeting where it is a Diamond+ discipline. It is the same figure in every discipline on a programme, so a win here pays exactly what a win in the 100 m pays. Seven of the 36 runnings were at the series final, which pays on its own ladder: $30,000 for the win at the 2026 final.

Who has earned the most in the men's long jump?

Miltiadis Tentoglou, on $261,500 from 28 paid finishes, twelve of them wins. 40 of the 69 athletes the discipline has paid were paid in it more than once.

Who has won the most Diamond League men's long jump titles?

Miltiadis Tentoglou, on twelve wins. Sixteen different athletes have won a Diamond League men's long jump across the 36 runnings on this site.

How often does the Diamond League run the men's long jump?

36 times across seven seasons, from 2019 to 2026, on the programmes of sixteen different meetings. Weltklasse Zürich has run it seven times, more than anywhere else. The series rotates its programme, so no discipline is on every card.

How far down the field does the men's long jump pay?

Eight places, and ninth pays nothing however good the mark was. 276 payments have gone to 69 athletes in this discipline, and 31 other finishes in the same result tables were worth nothing at all.
