Men's triple jump prize money

Pedro Pichardo won the men's triple jump at the 2025 World Athletics Championships in 17.91 and took $70,000. Second was worth $35,000 and third $22,000, and the money ran eight deep, so the final paid $172,000 in all.

Twelve athletes started the final, from ten countries. The championships put up $8,498,000 in Tokyo and spread it eight places deep in every event, which is deeper than any other meeting in athletics pays.

The winner takes 41% of what the event pays out and the other seven places share the rest. That shape is the same in every individual event on the programme, so the chart is the championship's ladder rather than anything particular to the men's triple jump.

Nine days in Tokyo against careers of Diamond League meetings. The series runs fifteen times a summer and pays six places at a fraction of these rates, which is what makes a world title the biggest single cheque most of this field will ever collect.
