Ryan Hill prize money
Ryan Hill has been paid $8,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1727th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the men's 3000 m and men's 5000 m, the best of them 4th.
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 2018 | 3000 m | 7th | $1,500 |
| Meeting de Paris 2016 | 3000 m | 4th | $3,000 |
| Muller Anniversary Games 2016 | 5000 m | 5th | $2,500 |
| Memorial Van Damme 2015 | 5000 m | 8th | $1,000 |
| All four | two disciplines | - | $8,000 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $8,000 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.

season running total
2016 is the biggest of them, $5,500 from two starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Ryan Hill in 2017, so that column stands at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $8,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Ryan Hill won?
$8,000, which ranks 1727th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2015 and 2018.
What is Ryan Hill's biggest Diamond League payday?
$3,000, for finishing 4th in the 3000 m at the 2016 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 4th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Ryan Hill 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 Ryan Hill 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.
