Freweyni Gebreezibeher prize money
Freweyni Gebreezibeher has been paid $10,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 828th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from one paid finish in the women's 1500 m, 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.

Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Athletissima 2021 | 1500 m | 1st | $10,000 |
The one paid figure add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $10,000 is one separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.02% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Freweyni Gebreezibeher won?
$10,000, which ranks 828th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from one paid finish in 2021.
What is Freweyni Gebreezibeher's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the 1500 m at the 2021 Athletissima. 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 Freweyni Gebreezibeher 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 1500 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Freweyni Gebreezibeher won?
One of one, worth $10,000 between them. She has not been paid at a Diamond League final.
Is this everything Freweyni Gebreezibeher 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.
