Aliyah Abrams prize money
Aliyah Abrams has been paid $4,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1190th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the women's 400 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.

Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diamond League Shanghai 2024 | 400 m | 5th | $1,250 |
| Xiamen Diamond League 2024 | 400 m | 7th | $750 |

| Prefontaine Classic 2023 | 400 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| All four | Women's 400 m | — | $4,250 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $4,250 is four 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.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Aliyah Abrams won?
$4,250, which ranks 1190th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2023 and 2024.
What is Aliyah Abrams's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,250, for finishing 5th in the 400 m at the 2024 Diamond League Shanghai. 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 Aliyah Abrams 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 400 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.
Is this everything Aliyah Abrams 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.
