Bianca Williams prize money
Bianca Williams has been paid $9,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1607th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from five paid finishes in the women's 200 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.
Every payment
Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bislett Games 2017 | 200 m | 5th | $2,500 |
| Athletissima 2017 | 200 m | 7th | $1,500 |
| Qatar Athletic Super Grand Prix 2015 | 200 m | 6th | $2,000 |
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2015 | 200 m | 6th | $2,000 |
| Athletissima 2015 | 200 m | 7th | $1,500 |
| All five | Women's 200 m | - | $9,500 |
The five paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $9,500 is five 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.
The World Athletics Relays
What Bianca Williams ran on
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | TEAM PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Women's 4 × 100 metres relay | 1st | 42.21 | $40,000 |
The World Relays have paid $40,000 for the one team Bianca Williams ran on in Guangzhou 2025, and all of it went to Great Britain rather than to the four who ran. The $9,500 at the top of this page is what the Diamond League paid her. This is what World Athletics paid a country, and the two are not added together anywhere on the site. She was on the winning team once, which pays $40,000 against $20,000 for second. She ran alongside Amy Hunt and Success Eduan, and the Diamond League has paid every one of them too. The World Relays page holds all 12 finals across two championships and the $1,067,000 they paid out.
The Olympic Games
What Bianca Williams won in Paris
| EVENT | MEDAL | EARNED |
|---|---|---|
| Women's 4 × 100 metres relay | Silver | - |
The silver in the women's 4 × 100 metres relay paid nothing. Only a gold pays, so 97 of the 145 medals awarded on the athletics programme in Paris carried no money at all. The Olympic page holds all 48 golds, the $2,400,000 they paid and what the circuit pays the same champions.
Season by season
2015 to 2017, in the order it was won
| SEASON | STARTS | WINS | BIGGEST | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2015 | 3 | - | Qatar Athletic Super Grand Prix | $5,500 |
| 2016 | - | - | - | - |
| 2017 | 2 | - | Bislett Games | $4,000 |
season running total
2015 is the biggest of them, $5,500 from three starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Bianca Williams in 2016, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $9,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Bianca Williams won?
$9,500, which ranks 1607th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from five paid finishes between 2015 and 2017.
What is Bianca Williams's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,500, for finishing 5th in the 200 m at the 2017 Bislett Games. 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 Bianca Williams 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 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.
What did Bianca Williams's World Relays teams win?
$40,000, across one paid final in Guangzhou 2025. The relays pay a team rather than a runner, so the cheque goes to the federation and not to Bianca Williams or to any one of the four. A title pays $40,000 and the ladder reaches all eight teams in a final, down to $2,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Bianca Williams earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Relays money above is separate money from a separate payer, and none of it is added together here. It holds 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.
Where to next
The rest of the Diamond League money
Diamond League prize money ranks all 3,683 athletes across the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out. One place above Bianca Williams is Antonina Krivoshapka on $9,500, and one below Brittany Borman on $9,500. Bianca Williams is one of 249 Great Britain athletes athletics has paid, and Great Britain athletics prize money adds them up to $6,351,625 across all six competitions. For the event itself, see women's 200 m prize money. The series has paid out in 20 women's disciplines and Bianca Williams has been paid in one of them. The biggest of the rest are women's 100 m, women's 100 m hurdles and women's 400 m. Every meeting she has raced is linked in the table at the top of this page, and Bislett Games has its own page across every edition of it. World Relays prize money is the Guangzhou 2025 and Gaborone 2026 championships, $1,087,000 put up across 12 finals that pay a team and never a runner, and the relay is on the women's 4 × 100 metres relay page.
