Orlando Bennett prize money
Orlando Bennett has been paid $28,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 937th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from eleven paid finishes in the men's 110 m hurdles, 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.

The eleven paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $28,500 is eleven separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.03% 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 Orlando Bennett won?
$28,500, which ranks 937th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from eleven paid finishes between 2024 and 2026.
What is Orlando Bennett's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 2nd in the Diamond+ 110 m hurdles at the 2026 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 2nd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Orlando Bennett 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 did Orlando Bennett win at the 2025 World Championships?
$35,000, from one paid final in Tokyo. The championships pay eight places in every event, $70,000 for a title down to $5,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Orlando Bennett earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World 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.
