Bianca Knight prize money
Bianca Knight has been paid $74,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 424th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from 18 paid finishes in the women's 200 m and women's 100 m, two of them wins.
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.

The 18 paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $74,500 is 18 separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.07% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Bianca Knight won?
$74,500, which ranks 424th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from 18 paid finishes between 2010 and 2013.
What is Bianca Knight's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the 200 m at the 2011 Golden Gala. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 1st and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Bianca Knight 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 win is worth the same in the women's 200 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Bianca Knight won?
Two of 18, worth $20,000 between them. She has not been paid at a Diamond League final.
Is this everything Bianca Knight 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.
