Hyvin Jepkemoi prize money
Hyvin Jepkemoi has been paid $82,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 171st of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from thirteen paid finishes in the women's 3000 m steeplechase and women's 3000 m, four 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.

| All fourteen | two disciplines | — | $82,500 |
The thirteen paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $82,500 is thirteen separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.2% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the fourteen starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Hyvin Jepkemoi won?
$82,500, which ranks 171st of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from thirteen paid finishes between 2017 and 2021.
What is Hyvin Jepkemoi's biggest Diamond League payday?
$12,000, for finishing 2nd in the 3000 m steeplechase at the 2021 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?
Four of fourteen, worth $40,000 between them. One of her appearance came at a final, which paid $12,000.
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. She 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 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.
