Elizabeth Gleadle prize money
Elizabeth Gleadle has been paid $46,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 661st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from sixteen paid finishes in the women's javelin throw, 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
The sixteen paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $46,500 is sixteen separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.04% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. Two of the 18 starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2015 is the biggest of them, $19,000 from six starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Elizabeth Gleadle in 2020, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $46,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Elizabeth Gleadle won?
$46,500, which ranks 661st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from sixteen paid finishes between 2014 and 2022.
What is Elizabeth Gleadle's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the javelin throw at the 2014 British Athletics 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 Elizabeth Gleadle 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 javelin throw 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 Elizabeth Gleadle won?
One of 18, worth $10,000 between them. One of her appearance came at a final, which paid $2,000.
Has Elizabeth Gleadle ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Two 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 Elizabeth Gleadle 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.
