Elena Bellò prize money
Elena Bellò has been paid $8,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1656th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from five paid finishes in the women's 800 m, the best of them 3rd.
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 five paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $8,750 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. Three of the eight starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Elena Bellò won?
$8,750, which ranks 1656th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from five paid finishes between 2022 and 2024.
What is Elena Bellò's biggest Diamond League payday?
$3,500, for finishing 3rd in the 800 m at the 2022 Golden Gala Pietro Mennea. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 3rd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Elena Bellò 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 800 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 Elena Bellò ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Three 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 Elena Bellò 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.
