Kerron Clement prize money
Kerron Clement has been paid $104,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 306th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from 22 paid finishes in the men's 400 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 he finished, and what the card paid for it
The 22 paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $104,000 is 22 separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.09% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

season running total
2016 is the biggest of them, $42,500 from seven starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Kerron Clement in 2012, 2014 and 2015, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $104,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Kerron Clement won?
$104,000, which ranks 306th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from 22 paid finishes between 2010 and 2018.
What is Kerron Clement's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the 400 m hurdles at the 2017 Müller Anniversary Games. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 1st and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Kerron Clement 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 win is worth the same in the men's 400 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 Kerron Clement won?
Five of 22, worth $50,000 between them. One of his appearance came at a final, which paid $6,000.
Is this everything Kerron Clement 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 him, priced off the card it published.
