Alexandra Bell prize money
Alexandra Bell has been paid $3,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1245th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from two paid finishes in the women's 800 m, the best of them 5th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Doha Diamond League 2024 | 800 m | 9th | — |
| Birmingham Diamond League 2022 | 800 m | 5th | $1,250 |
| Müller Grand Prix Birmingham 2019 | 800 m | 5th | $2,500 |
| All three | Women's 800 m | — | $3,750 |
The two paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $3,750 is two separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the three starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2019 is the biggest of them, $2,500 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Alexandra Bell in 2020, 2021, 2023 and 2024, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $3,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Alexandra Bell won?
$3,750, which ranks 1245th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from two paid finishes between 2019 and 2024.
What is Alexandra Bell's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,500, for finishing 5th in the 800 m at the 2019 Müller Grand Prix Birmingham. 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 Alexandra Bell 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 place is worth the same in the women'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 Alexandra Bell ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
One time. 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. She is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Alexandra Bell 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.
