PJ Austin prize money
PJ Austin has been paid $1,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2889th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from two paid finishes in the men's 100 m, the best of them 6th.
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
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2024 | 100 m | 6th | $1,000 |
| Kamila Skolimowska Memorial 2023 | 100 m | 7th | $750 |
| All two | Men's 100 m | - | $1,750 |
The two paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $1,750 is two 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.

What PJ Austin ran on
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | TEAM PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Men's 4 × 100 metres relay | 1st | 37.43 | $40,000 |
The World Relays have paid $40,000 for the one team PJ Austin ran on in Gaborone 2026, and all of it went to the United States rather than to the four who ran. The $1,750 at the top of this page is what the Diamond League paid him. This is what World Athletics paid a country, and the two are not added together anywhere on the site. He was on the winning team once, which pays $40,000 against $20,000 for second. He ran alongside Ronnie Baker, and the Diamond League has paid them too. The World Relays page holds all 12 finals across two championships and the $1,067,000 they paid out.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has PJ Austin won?
$1,750, which ranks 2889th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from two paid finishes between 2023 and 2024.
What is PJ Austin's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,000, for finishing 6th in the 100 m at the 2024 Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 6th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what PJ Austin 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 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.
What did PJ Austin's World Relays teams win?
$40,000, across one paid final in Gaborone 2026. The relays pay a team rather than a runner, so the cheque goes to the federation and not to PJ Austin or to any one of the four. A title pays $40,000 and the ladder reaches all eight teams in a final, down to $2,000 for 8th.
Is this everything PJ Austin earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Relays 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.

Diamond League prize money ranks all 3,683 athletes across the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out.

For the event itself, see men's 100 m prize money. The series has paid out in 21 men's disciplines and PJ Austin has been paid in one of them.

World Relays prize money is the Guangzhou 2025 and Gaborone 2026 championships, $1,087,000 put up across 12 finals that pay a team and never a runner, and the relay is on the men's 4 × 100 metres relay page.
