Patrick Tiernan prize money
Patrick Tiernan has been paid $1,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 3077th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from one paid finish in the men's 3000 m, and it was 7th.
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 payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting de Paris 2017 | 3000 m | 7th | $1,500 |
The one paid figure add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $1,500 is one separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.
The World Cross Country Championships
What Patrick Tiernan ran on the grass
| RACE | PLACE | MARK | EARNED | TEAM PAID |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Senior men's race | 29th | 29:45 | - | $8,000 |
Patrick Tiernan has run one race here and was paid nothing in his own name. Only the first six across the line are, $30,000 for the win down to $3,000 for 6th, and there is no appearance money underneath it. The team he ran on earned Australia $8,000, all of it from a team standing, which is settled on the places of the first four runners a country gets home. It is the federation's money rather than his, and it is not added to the $1,500 at the top of this page. The cross country page holds all 10 races across two championships and the $620,000 they paid out.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Patrick Tiernan won?
$1,500, which ranks 3077th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from one paid finish in 2017.
What is Patrick Tiernan's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,500, for finishing 7th in the 3000 m at the 2017 Meeting de Paris. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 7th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Patrick Tiernan 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 3000 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 Patrick Tiernan earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Cross Country 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.
