Michael Jung prize money by season

In time order, not sorted

4 seasons

A show jumping career does not climb the way a contract does. It moves with whichever horse is sound and in form, so a season with a top horse out of work looks like a collapse and is not one. Chasandra alone accounts for 42.1% of everything Michael Jung has won.

Every figure is converted to sterling so the rounds can be added up: show jumping pays in the currency of wherever it is run, which is euros at most of the calendar, sterling at the British shows and Swiss francs at Geneva.

Frequently asked questions

How much prize money has Michael Jung won?

£6,549 across 8 paid rounds between 2018 and 2024, which ranks 359 of the 3,331 riders show jumping has paid.

Does Michael Jung keep that money?

Not all of it, and often not most of it. A money prize in equestrian sport is awarded to the owner of the horse rather than to the rider, and the rider is paid a share of it under a private agreement, usually alongside a monthly fee for keeping the horse in work. A rider who owns the horse keeps the whole cheque.

What is Michael Jung's biggest prize?

£1,380 for finishing 3rd in the Prix Radio Lac at CHI Geneva in 2021.

Which horse has won Michael Jung the most?

Chasandra, £2,760 across 2 paid rounds, which is 42.1% of everything Michael Jung has won.

Does Michael Jung have a salary?

No. Show jumping pays no wage at any level: there is no contract with a federation, no appearance money at most shows and no retainer. The money on this page is the whole of what the sport paid, and it was paid one round at a time.
