Jiang Zhichao prize money
Jiang Zhichao has been paid $1,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2884th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from two paid finishes in the women's discus throw, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Xiamen Diamond League 2025 | Discus throw | 8th | $1,000 |
| Xiamen Diamond League 2023 | Discus throw | 7th | $750 |
| All two | Women's discus throw | - | $1,750 |
The two paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $1,750 is two 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
2025 is the biggest of them, $1,000 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Jiang Zhichao in 2024, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $1,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Jiang Zhichao won?
$1,750, which ranks 2884th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from two paid finishes between 2023 and 2025.
What is Jiang Zhichao's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,000, for finishing 8th in the discus throw at the 2025 Xiamen Diamond League. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 8th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Jiang Zhichao 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 discus 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.
Is this everything Jiang Zhichao 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.
