Sara Gambetta prize money
Sara Gambetta has been paid $4,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1183rd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the women's shot put, 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 she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2023 | Shot put | 4th | $2,000 |
| Meeting de Paris 2023 | Shot put | 5th | $1,250 |
| Bislett Games 2023 | Shot put | 8th | $500 |
| Doha Diamond League 2022 | Shot put | 7th | $750 |
| All four | Women's shot put | — | $4,500 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $4,500 is four separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Sara Gambetta won?
$4,500, which ranks 1183rd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2022 and 2023.
What is Sara Gambetta's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,000, for finishing 4th in the shot put at the 2023 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 4th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Sara Gambetta gets paid?
Entirely by where she 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 women's shot put 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 Sara Gambetta earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 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 her, priced off the card it published.
