Kendra Harrison prize money
Kendra Harrison has been paid $126,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 100th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from 24 paid finishes in the women's 100 m hurdles, five of them wins.
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
The 24 paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $126,750 is 24 separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.2% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.

season running total
2019 is the biggest of them, $46,000 from four starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Kendra Harrison in 2020 and 2021, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $126,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Kendra Harrison won?
$126,750, which ranks 100th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from 24 paid finishes between 2017 and 2026.
What is Kendra Harrison's biggest Diamond League payday?
$20,000, for finishing 2nd in the 100 m hurdles at the 2019 AG Memorial Van Damme. 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 Kendra Harrison 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 win 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Kendra Harrison won?
Five of 24, worth $50,000 between them. Four of her appearances came at a final, which paid $30,000.
Is this everything Kendra Harrison earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 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.
