Jeffery Gibson prize money
Jeffery Gibson has been paid $26,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 979th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from six paid finishes in the men's 400 m hurdles, 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.

| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shanghai Golden Grand Prix 2016 | 400 m hurdles | 3rd | $4,000 |
| Prefontaine Classic 2016 | 400 m hurdles | 4th | $3,000 |

| Shanghai Golden Grand Prix 2014 | 400 m hurdles | 5th | $2,500 |
| All six | Men's 400 m hurdles | - | $26,000 |
The six paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $26,000 is six 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.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Jeffery Gibson won?
$26,000, which ranks 979th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from six paid finishes between 2014 and 2016.
What is Jeffery Gibson's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the 400 m hurdles at the 2015 Memorial Van Damme. 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 Jeffery Gibson 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 400 m hurdles 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 Jeffery Gibson won?
One of six, worth $10,000 between them. He has not been paid at a Diamond League final.
Is this everything Jeffery Gibson 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.
