Omar Craddock prize money
Omar Craddock has been paid $74,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 425th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from 20 paid finishes in the men's triple jump, one of them a win.
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 20 paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $74,500 is 20 separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.07% 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 Omar Craddock won?
$74,500, which ranks 425th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from 20 paid finishes between 2013 and 2019.
What is Omar Craddock's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the triple jump at the 2019 Golden Gala Pietro Mennea. 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 Omar Craddock 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 triple jump 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 Omar Craddock won?
One of 20, worth $10,000 between them. Three of his appearances came at a final, which paid $18,000.
Is this everything Omar Craddock 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.
