Talitha Diggs prize money
Talitha Diggs has been paid $7,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 947th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the women's 400 m, the best of them 2nd.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diamond League Shanghai 2024 | 400 m | 2nd | $6,000 |
| London Athletics Meet 2024 | 400 m | 8th | $500 |
| Xiamen Diamond League 2023 | 400 m | 6th | $1,000 |
| All three | Women's 400 m | — | $7,500 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $7,500 is three 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 Talitha Diggs won?
$7,500, which ranks 947th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from three paid finishes between 2023 and 2024.
What is Talitha Diggs's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 2nd in the 400 m at the 2024 Diamond League Shanghai. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 2nd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Talitha Diggs 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 400 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 Talitha Diggs 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.
