Ibrahim Jeilan prize money
Ibrahim Jeilan has been paid $18,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1212th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the men's 5000 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.
Every payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bauhausgalan 2016 | 5000 m | 1st | $10,000 |
| Glasgow Grand Prix 2014 | 5000 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| Adidas Grand Prix 2013 | 5000 m | 3rd | $4,000 |
| British Grand Prix 2013 | 5000 m | 4th | $3,000 |
| All four | Men's 5000 m | - | $18,000 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $18,000 is four separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.02% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

season running total
2016 is the biggest of them, $10,000 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Ibrahim Jeilan in 2015, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $18,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Ibrahim Jeilan won?
$18,000, which ranks 1212th 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 Ibrahim Jeilan's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the 5000 m at the 2016 Bauhausgalan. 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 Ibrahim Jeilan 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 win is worth the same in the men's 5000 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 Ibrahim Jeilan won?
One of four, worth $10,000 between them. He has not been paid at a Diamond League final.
Is this everything Ibrahim Jeilan 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.
