Eugene Omalla prize money
Eugene Omalla has been paid $500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 3614th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from one paid finish in the men's 400 m, and it was 8th.
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 payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Athletissima 2024 | 400 m | 8th | $500 |
The one paid figure add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $500 is one separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.
The World Championships
What Eugene Omalla did in Tokyo, 2025
Eugene Omalla went to the 2025 World Championships in Tokyo on a relay and ran no individual final there. He ran on the Netherlands team that finished 2nd in the mixed 4 × 400 metres relay, $40,000 to the federation rather than to any one of the four. The championships page holds all 49 events and the $8,498,000 they paid out.
The World Indoor Championships
What Eugene Omalla did indoors
Eugene Omalla went to the World Indoor Championships on a relay and ran no individual final there. He ran on the Netherlands team that finished 4th in the men's 4 × 400 metres relay in Toruń 2026, $8,000 to the team rather than to any one of the four. The indoor championships page holds all 53 finals across two editions and the $4,632,000 they paid out.
The World Athletics Relays
What Eugene Omalla ran on
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | TEAM PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Men's 4 × 400 metres relay | 6th | 3:00.13 | $4,000 |
The World Relays have paid $4,000 for the one team Eugene Omalla ran on in Gaborone 2026, and all of it went to the Netherlands rather than to the four who ran. The $500 at the top of this page is what the Diamond League paid him. This is what World Athletics paid a country, and the two are not added together anywhere on the site. No team he ran on won its final, and the ladder paid the teams anyway: it reaches all eight teams in a final, $40,000 for a title down to $2,000 for 8th, so reaching one is the run that pays. He ran alongside Tony van Diepen, and the Diamond League has paid them too. The World Relays page holds all 12 finals across two championships and the $1,067,000 they paid out.
The Olympic Games
What Eugene Omalla won in Paris
| EVENT | MEDAL | EARNED |
|---|---|---|
| Mixed 4 × 400 metres relay | Gold | - |
The mixed 4 × 400 metres relay gold was worth $50,000 and was paid to the federation as a single cheque, with nothing published about how it was split between the runners. It is not his and is not added to the $500 at the top of this page. The Olympic page holds all 48 golds, the $2,400,000 they paid and what the circuit pays the same champions.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Eugene Omalla won?
$500, which ranks 3614th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from one paid finish in 2024.
What is Eugene Omalla's biggest Diamond League payday?
$500, for finishing 8th in the 400 m at the 2024 Athletissima. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 8th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Eugene Omalla gets paid?
Entirely by where he 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 men's 400 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.
What did Eugene Omalla's World Relays teams win?
$4,000, across one paid final in Gaborone 2026. The relays pay a team rather than a runner, so the cheque goes to the federation and not to Eugene Omalla or to any one of the four. A title pays $40,000 and the ladder reaches all eight teams in a final, down to $2,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Eugene Omalla earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Relays 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 him, 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 Eugene Omalla is Ermias Girma on $500, and one below Farzaneh Fasihi on $500. Eugene Omalla is one of 55 Netherlands athletes athletics has paid, and Netherlands athletics prize money adds them up to $2,809,167 across all six competitions. For the event itself, see men's 400 m prize money. The series has paid out in 21 men's disciplines and Eugene Omalla has been paid in one of them. The biggest of the rest are men's 100 m, men's pole vault and men's 800 m. Every meeting he has raced is linked in the table at the top of this page, and Athletissima 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 mixed 4 × 400 metres relay page. Indoor championships prize money is the Nanjing 2025 and Toruń 2026 championships, $4,664,000 put up across 53 finals, and the indoor final is on the men's 4 × 400 metres relay page. World Relays prize money is the Guangzhou 2025 and Gaborone 2026 championships, $1,087,000 put up across 12 finals that pay a team and never a runner, and the relay is on the men's 4 × 400 metres relay page.
