Sokwakhana Zazini prize money
Sokwakhana Zazini has been paid $2,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2645th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the men's 400 m hurdles, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Doha Diamond League 2023 | 400 m hurdles | 6th | $1,000 |
| Bislett Games 2022 | 400 m hurdles | 7th | $750 |
| Bauhausgalan 2022 | 400 m hurdles | 8th | $500 |
| All three | Men's 400 m hurdles | - | $2,250 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $2,250 is three 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.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Sokwakhana Zazini won?
$2,250, which ranks 2645th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from three paid finishes between 2022 and 2023.
What is Sokwakhana Zazini's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,000, for finishing 6th in the 400 m hurdles at the 2023 Doha Diamond League. 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 Sokwakhana Zazini 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 400 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.
Is this everything Sokwakhana Zazini 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.
