Olesya Povh prize money
Olesya Povh has been paid $14,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1379th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the women's 100 m and women's 200 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.
Every payment
Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bislett Games 2013 | 100 m | 4th | $3,000 |
| Athletissima 2012 | 100 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| Bislett Games 2011 | 100 m | 2nd | $6,000 |
| Athletissima 2011 | 200 m | 3rd | $4,000 |
| All four | two disciplines | - | $14,000 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $14,000 is four 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 Olesya Povh won?
$14,000, which ranks 1379th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2011 and 2013.
What is Olesya Povh's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 2nd in the 100 m at the 2011 Bislett Games. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 2nd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Olesya Povh 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 100 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.
Is this everything Olesya Povh 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.
