Alicia Monson prize money
Alicia Monson has been paid $14,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1342nd of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from seven paid finishes in the women's 3000 m and women's 5000 m, the best of them 2nd.
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 ten | two disciplines | - | $14,500 |
The seven paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $14,500 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. Three of the ten starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2022 is the biggest of them, $9,250 from three starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Alicia Monson in 2021, 2024, 2025 and 2026, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $14,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Alicia Monson won?
$14,500, which ranks 1342nd of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from seven paid finishes between 2021 and 2026.
What is Alicia Monson's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 2nd in the 3000 m at the 2022 Athletissima. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 2nd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Alicia Monson 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 3000 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 Alicia Monson ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Three 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 Alicia Monson 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 her, priced off the card it published.
