Elvira Herman prize money
Elvira Herman has been paid $16,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 669th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from six paid finishes in the women's 100 m hurdles, 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.

| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2021 | 100 m hurdles | 3rd | $3,500 |
| Oslo Bislett Games 2019 | 100 m hurdles | 3rd | $4,000 |
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2019 | 100 m hurdles | 7th | $3,000 |
| Bauhausgalan 2019 | 100 m hurdles | 5th | $2,500 |
| Doha Diamond League 2019 | 100 m hurdles | 6th | $2,000 |
| Müller Anniversary Games 2019 | 100 m hurdles | 7th | $1,500 |
| All six | Women's 100 m hurdles | — | $16,500 |
The six paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $16,500 is six separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.03% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.

season running total
2019 is the biggest of them, $13,000 from five starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Elvira Herman in 2020, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $16,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Elvira Herman won?
$16,500, which ranks 669th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from six paid finishes between 2019 and 2021.
What is Elvira Herman's biggest Diamond League payday?
$4,000, for finishing 3rd in the 100 m hurdles at the 2019 Oslo Bislett Games. 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 Elvira Herman 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 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.
Is this everything Elvira Herman earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 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.
