Women's long jump prize money
The Diamond League has paid $1,433,250 in the women's long jump, to 72 athletes across 39 runnings of it, from 2017 to 2026. Malaika Mihambo has taken more of it than anyone, $207,750.
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 39 runnings were at the series final, which pays on its own ladder: $60,000 for the win at the 2026 final. Six of the 39 runnings were Diamond+, which pays double.

Every Diamond League women's long jump
Who won it, what the win paid and what the field took
What the women'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: 2021 ran it six times and 2017 once. 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. Bauhausgalan and Golden Gala Pietro Mennea have each run it five times. 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 women'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 six of 39 runnings where the series doubled the discipline's rate for the day.

What does a win in the women'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 39 runnings were at the series final, which pays on its own ladder: $60,000 for the win at the 2026 final.
Who has earned the most in the women's long jump?
Malaika Mihambo, on $207,750 from 25 paid finishes, eight of them wins. 42 of the 72 athletes the discipline has paid were paid in it more than once.
