Liu Junxi prize money
Liu Junxi has been paid $13,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1391st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from five paid finishes in the men's 110 m hurdles, the best of them 3rd.
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.

Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shanghai Diamond League 2026 | 110 m hurdles | 5th | $2,500 |
| Xiamen Diamond League 2026 | 110 m hurdles | 7th | $1,500 |
| Xiamen Diamond League 2025 | 110 m hurdles | 3rd | $6,000 |
| Diamond League Shanghai 2025 | 110 m hurdles | 5th | $3,000 |
| Xiamen Diamond League 2024 | 110 m hurdles | 7th | $750 |
| All five | Men's 110 m hurdles | - | $13,750 |
The five paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $13,750 is five separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Liu Junxi won?
$13,750, which ranks 1391st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from five paid finishes between 2024 and 2026.
What is Liu Junxi's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 3rd in the Diamond+ 110 m hurdles 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 3rd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Liu Junxi 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 place is worth the same in the men's 110 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 much has Liu Junxi won at the World Indoor Championships?
$10,000, from one paid final in Nanjing 2025. An indoor title pays $40,000 and the ladder runs six places deep, down to $4,000 for 6th, the same in every event on the programme and the same for a relay team.
Is this everything Liu Junxi earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Indoor 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 him, priced off the card it published.
