Hamid Ezzine prize money
Hamid Ezzine has been paid $5,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1976th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the men's 3000 m steeplechase, the best of them 6th.
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 he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2016 | 3000 m steeplechase | 6th | $2,000 |
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2014 | 3000 m steeplechase | 8th | $1,000 |
| Meeting Areva 2013 | 3000 m steeplechase | 7th | $1,500 |
| Bislett Games 2013 | 3000 m steeplechase | 8th | $1,000 |
| All four | Men's 3000 m steeplechase | - | $5,500 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $5,500 is four 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.

season running total
2013 is the biggest of them, $2,500 from two starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Hamid Ezzine in 2015, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $5,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Hamid Ezzine won?
$5,500, which ranks 1976th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2013 and 2016.
What is Hamid Ezzine's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,000, for finishing 6th in the 3000 m steeplechase at the 2016 Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 6th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Hamid Ezzine 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 3000 m steeplechase 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 Hamid Ezzine 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 him, priced off the card it published.
