Elise Cranny prize money
Elise Cranny has been paid $11,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1488th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from eight paid finishes in the women's 3000 m, women's 1500 m and women's mile, 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 eight paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $11,750 is eight 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 eleven starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2022 is the biggest of them, $5,500 from three starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Elise Cranny in 2025, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $11,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Elise Cranny won?
$11,750, which ranks 1488th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from eight paid finishes between 2021 and 2025.
What is Elise Cranny's biggest Diamond League payday?
$3,500, for finishing 3rd in the 1500 m at the 2022 Herculis. 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 Elise Cranny 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 3000 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 Elise Cranny 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 Elise Cranny 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.
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 Elise Cranny is Damian Czykier on $11,750, and one below Ersu Şaşma on $11,750. Elise Cranny is one of 659 United States athletes athletics has paid, and United States athletics prize money adds them up to $29,436,125 across all six competitions. For the event itself, see women's 3000 m prize money, women's 1500 m prize money, women's mile prize money and women's 5000 m prize money. The series has paid out in 20 women's disciplines and Elise Cranny has been paid in four 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 Prefontaine Classic has its own page across every edition of it. Away from the series, World Championships prize money is Tokyo 2025, $8,498,000 paid eight places deep in every event, and the full final is on the women's 10,000 metres page.
