Brigitte Ann Foster-Hylton prize money
Brigitte Ann Foster-Hylton has been paid $18,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1206th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the women's 100 m hurdles, one of them a win.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Qatar Athletic Super Grand Prix 2012 | 100 m hurdles | 1st | $10,000 |
| Golden Gala 2012 | 100 m hurdles | 3rd | $4,000 |
| DN Galan 2012 | 100 m hurdles | 7th | $1,500 |
| Memorial van Damme 2011 | 100 m hurdles | 5th | $2,500 |
| All four | Women's 100 m hurdles | - | $18,000 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $18,000 is four separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.02% 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 Brigitte Ann Foster-Hylton won?
$18,000, which ranks 1206th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2011 and 2012.
What is Brigitte Ann Foster-Hylton's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the 100 m hurdles at the 2012 Qatar Athletic Super Grand Prix. 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 Brigitte Ann Foster-Hylton 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 100 m hurdles 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 Brigitte Ann Foster-Hylton won?
One of four, worth $10,000 between them. She has not been paid at a Diamond League final.
Is this everything Brigitte Ann Foster-Hylton 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.
