Andrew Butchart prize money
Andrew Butchart has been paid $13,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1401st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from six paid finishes in the men's 5000 m and men's 3000 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.

| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anniversary Games 2021 | 3000 m | 3rd | $3,500 |
| Müller Grand Prix Gateshead 2021 | 5000 m | 6th | $1,000 |

| Doha Diamond League 2017 | 3000 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| Prefontaine Classic 2017 | 5000 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| Muller Anniversary Games 2016 | 5000 m | 2nd | $6,000 |
| All eight | two disciplines | - | $13,500 |
The six paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $13,500 is six 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. Two of the eight starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2016 is the biggest of them, $6,000 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Andrew Butchart in 2018 and 2020, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $13,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Andrew Butchart won?
$13,500, which ranks 1401st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from six paid finishes between 2016 and 2021.
What is Andrew Butchart's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 2nd in the 5000 m at the 2016 Muller Anniversary Games. 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 Andrew Butchart 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 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.
Has Andrew Butchart 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. Those starts are in the result tables on this site either way.
Is this everything Andrew Butchart 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 him, priced off the card it published.
