Hyvin Jepkemoi prize money
Hyvin Jepkemoi has been paid $212,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 90th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from 32 paid finishes in the women's 3000 m steeplechase and women's 3000 m, eight of them wins.
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 32 paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $212,000 is 32 separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.2% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the 33 starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2018 is the biggest of them, $42,000 from six starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Hyvin Jepkemoi in 2013 and 2020, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $212,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Hyvin Jepkemoi won?
$212,000, which ranks 90th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from 32 paid finishes between 2012 and 2021.
What is Hyvin Jepkemoi's biggest Diamond League payday?
$20,000, for finishing 2nd in the 3000 m steeplechase at the 2019 Weltklasse Zürich. That is a final, which is why it is the biggest: the final pays two to five times what the same place is worth at a series meeting.
How does the Diamond League decide what Hyvin Jepkemoi 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 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Hyvin Jepkemoi won?
Eight of 33, worth $80,000 between them. Four of her appearances came at a final, which paid $47,000.
Has Hyvin Jepkemoi ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
One time. 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. That start is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Hyvin Jepkemoi 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.
