Jessica Ennis-Hill prize money
Jessica Ennis-Hill has been paid $5,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2049th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the women's 100 m hurdles, women's javelin throw and women's long jump, the best of them 7th.
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 she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Muller Anniversary Games 2016 | 100 m hurdles | 8th | $1,000 |
| Adidas Grand Prix 2011 | 100 m hurdles | 7th | $1,500 |
| Adidas Grand Prix 2011 | Long jump | 8th | $1,000 |
| British Grand Prix 2010 | Javelin throw | 7th | $1,500 |
| All four | three disciplines | - | $5,000 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $5,000 is four separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

season running total
2011 is the biggest of them, $2,500 from two starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Jessica Ennis-Hill in 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $5,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Jessica Ennis-Hill won?
$5,000, which ranks 2049th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2010 and 2016.
What is Jessica Ennis-Hill's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,500, for finishing 7th in the 100 m hurdles at the 2011 Adidas 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 7th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Jessica Ennis-Hill 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 place is worth the same in the women's 100 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.
Is this everything Jessica Ennis-Hill 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 her, priced off the card it published.
