Josette Andrews prize money
Josette Andrews has been paid $43,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 693rd of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from eight paid finishes in the women's 3000 m, women's 1500 m and women's 5000 m, the best of them 2nd.
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 eight paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $43,250 is eight separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.04% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. Six of the fourteen starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Josette Andrews won?
$43,250, which ranks 693rd of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from eight paid finishes between 2021 and 2025.
What is Josette Andrews's biggest Diamond League payday?
$20,000, for finishing 2nd in the Diamond+ 3000 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 Josette Andrews 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 3000 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 Josette Andrews ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Six 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 did Josette Andrews win at the 2025 World Championships?
$7,000, from one paid final in Tokyo. The championships pay eight places in every event, $70,000 for a title down to $5,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Josette Andrews earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World 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 her, priced off the card it published.
Where to next
The rest of the Diamond League money
Diamond League prize money ranks all 3,683 athletes across the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out. One place above Josette Andrews is Jacob Krop on $43,250, and one below Shunsuke Izumiya on $43,250. Josette Andrews is one of 659 United States athletes athletics has paid, and United States athletics prize money adds them up to $29,436,125 across all six competitions. For the event itself, see women's 3000 m prize money, women's 1500 m prize money, women's 5000 m prize money and women's mile prize money. The series has paid out in 20 women's disciplines and Josette Andrews has been paid in four of them. The biggest of the rest are women's 100 m, women's 100 m hurdles and women's 400 m. Every meeting she has raced is linked in the table at the top of this page, and Weltklasse Zürich has its own page across every edition of it. Away from the series, World Championships prize money is Tokyo 2025, $8,498,000 paid eight places deep in every event, and the full final is on the women's 5000 metres page.
