Aman Wote prize money
Aman Wote has been paid $5,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1078th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the men's 1500 m and men's mile, 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.
Every payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bauhausgalan 2019 | 1500 m | 7th | $1,500 |
| Oslo Bislett Games 2019 | Mile | 13th | — |
| Athletissima 2019 | 1500 m | 12th | — |
| Meeting de Paris 2018 | 1500 m | 4th | $3,000 |
| Doha Diamond League 2017 | 1500 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| All five | two disciplines | — | $5,500 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $5,500 is three 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. Two of the five starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Aman Wote won?
$5,500, which ranks 1078th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from three paid finishes between 2017 and 2019.
What is Aman Wote's biggest Diamond League payday?
$3,000, for finishing 4th in the 1500 m at the 2018 Meeting de Paris. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 4th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Aman Wote 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 1500 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 Aman Wote 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. He are in the result tables on this site either way.
Is this everything Aman Wote 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 him, priced off the card it published.
