Doris Lemngole prize money
Doris Lemngole has been paid $34,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 419th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from five paid finishes in the women's 3000 m steeplechase, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2026 | 3000 m steeplechase | 2nd | $12,000 |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2026 | 3000 m steeplechase | 2nd | $6,000 |
| Prefontaine Classic 2026 | 3000 m steeplechase | 4th | $3,000 |
| Athletissima 2026 | 3000 m steeplechase | 4th | $3,000 |
| Athletissima 2025 | 3000 m steeplechase | 1st | $10,000 |
| All five | Women's 3000 m steeplechase | — | $34,000 |
The five paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $34,000 is five separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.06% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Doris Lemngole won?
$34,000, which ranks 419th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from five paid finishes between 2025 and 2026.
What is Doris Lemngole's biggest Diamond League payday?
$12,000, for finishing 2nd in the 3000 m steeplechase at the 2026 AG Memorial Van Damme. That is a final, which is why it is the biggest: the final pays two to five times what the same place is worth at a series meeting.
How does the Diamond League decide what Doris Lemngole 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 3000 m steeplechase 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 Doris Lemngole won?
One of five, worth $10,000 between them. One of her appearance came at a final, which paid $12,000.
How much did Doris Lemngole win at the 2025 World Championships?
$11,000, from one paid final in Tokyo. The championships pay eight places in every event, $70,000 for a title down to $5,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Doris Lemngole earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. The World Championships 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.
