Jeremiah Azu prize money
Jeremiah Azu has been paid $23,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1058th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from twelve paid finishes in the men's 100 m, the best of them 3rd.
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 | Men's 100 m | - | $23,000 |
The twelve paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $23,000 is twelve 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. Two of the fourteen starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.
The World Indoor Championships
What Jeremiah Azu did indoors, 2025 and 2026
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Men's 60 metres | 1st | 6.49 | $40,000 |
| Men's 60 metres | 4th | 6.46 | $8,000 |
The World Indoor Championships have paid Jeremiah Azu $48,000 for two finishes across Nanjing 2025 and Toruń 2026, against $23,000 from fourteen Diamond League starts between 2023 and 2026. An indoor title paid $40,000, which is more than the Diamond League has paid him in any single season. The indoor championships page holds all 53 finals across two editions and the $4,632,000 they paid out.
The World Athletics Relays
What Jeremiah Azu ran on
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | TEAM PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Men's 4 × 100 metres relay | - | DNF | - |
Jeremiah Azu stood in one World Relays final and the team was paid for it. The ladder reaches all eight teams in a final, $40,000 for a title down to $2,000 for 8th, so the only way past it is not to finish: a dropped baton or a disqualification leaves the rung empty and the meeting keeps the money. He ran alongside Zharnel Hughes, Nethaneel Mitchell-Blake and Romell Glave, and the Diamond League has paid every one of them too. The World Relays page holds all 12 finals across two championships and the $1,067,000 they paid out.
The Olympic Games
What Jeremiah Azu won in Paris
| EVENT | MEDAL | EARNED |
|---|---|---|
| Men's 4 × 100 metres relay | Bronze | - |
The bronze in the men's 4 × 100 metres relay paid nothing. Only a gold pays, so 97 of the 145 medals awarded on the athletics programme in Paris carried no money at all. The Olympic page holds all 48 golds, the $2,400,000 they paid and what the circuit pays the same champions.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Jeremiah Azu won?
$23,000, which ranks 1058th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from twelve paid finishes between 2023 and 2026.
What is Jeremiah Azu's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 4th in the Diamond+ 100 m at the 2025 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 Jeremiah Azu 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 place is worth the same in the men's 100 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.
Has Jeremiah Azu ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Two 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.
How much has Jeremiah Azu won at the World Indoor Championships?
$48,000, from two paid finals across Toruń 2026 and Nanjing 2025. An indoor title pays $40,000 and the ladder runs six places deep, down to $4,000 for 6th, the same in every event on the programme and the same for a relay team.
Is this everything Jeremiah Azu earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Indoor Championships money above is separate money from a separate payer, and none of it is added together here. It holds 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.
