Abdelati El Guesse prize money
Abdelati El Guesse has been paid $9,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1631st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from seven paid finishes in the men's 800 m, the best of them 4th.
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.

| All nine | Men's 800 m | - | $9,000 |
The seven paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $9,000 is seven separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. Two of the nine starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2024 is the biggest of them, $3,000 from three starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Abdelati El Guesse in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2026, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $9,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Abdelati El Guesse won?
$9,000, which ranks 1631st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from seven paid finishes between 2016 and 2026.
What is Abdelati El Guesse's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,500, for finishing 5th in the 800 m at the 2016 Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 5th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Abdelati El Guesse gets paid?
Entirely by where he finishes. The series publishes one rate card a season and applies it to every discipline at every meeting, so a place is worth the same in the men's 800 m 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.
Has Abdelati El Guesse ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Two times. 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. Those starts are in the result tables on this site either way.
Is this everything Abdelati El Guesse earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. It holds no championship prize money, no national federation payment, no appearance fee and no sponsorship. What it does hold is every dollar the series itself paid him, priced off the card it published.
