Agnes Jebet Tirop prize money
Agnes Jebet Tirop has been paid $27,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 494th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from five paid finishes in the women's 5000 m and women's 3000 m, one of them a win.
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.
Every payment
Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bauhausgalan 2019 | 5000 m | 1st | $10,000 |
| Müller Anniversary Games 2019 | 5000 m | 2nd | $6,000 |
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2019 | 5000 m | 6th | $4,000 |

| Doha Diamond League 2018 | 3000 m | 2nd | $6,000 |
| All five | two disciplines | — | $27,500 |
The five paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $27,500 is five separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.05% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Agnes Jebet Tirop won?
$27,500, which ranks 494th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from five paid finishes between 2018 and 2019.
What is Agnes Jebet Tirop's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the 5000 m at the 2019 Bauhausgalan. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 1st and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Agnes Jebet Tirop gets paid?
Entirely by where she finishes. The series publishes one rate card a season and applies it to every discipline at every meeting, so a win is worth the same in the women's 5000 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Agnes Jebet Tirop won?
One of five, worth $10,000 between them. One of her appearance came at a final, which paid $4,000.
Is this everything Agnes Jebet Tirop earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 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 her, priced off the card it published.
