Ihab Abdelrahman prize money
Ihab Abdelrahman has been paid $33,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 850th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from nine paid finishes in the men's javelin throw, 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.

The nine paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $33,000 is nine separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.03% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. Four of the thirteen starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2014 is the biggest of them, $25,500 from five starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Ihab Abdelrahman in 2016, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $33,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Ihab Abdelrahman won?
$33,000, which ranks 850th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from nine paid finishes between 2014 and 2016.
What is Ihab Abdelrahman's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the javelin throw at the 2014 Shanghai Golden Grand Prix. 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 Ihab Abdelrahman 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 javelin throw 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 Ihab Abdelrahman won?
Four of thirteen, worth $20,000 between them. He has not been paid at a Diamond League final.
Has Ihab Abdelrahman ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Four times. 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. Those starts are in the result tables on this site either way.
Is this everything Ihab Abdelrahman 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.
