Tarsis Orogot prize money
Tarsis Orogot has been paid $9,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1621st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from two paid finishes in the men's 200 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 he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting de Paris 2024 | 200 m | 2nd | $6,000 |
| Herculis 2024 | 200 m | 3rd | $3,500 |
| All two | Men's 200 m | - | $9,500 |
The two paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $9,500 is two 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.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Tarsis Orogot won?
$9,500, which ranks 1621st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from two paid finishes in 2024.
What is Tarsis Orogot's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 2nd in the 200 m at the 2024 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 2nd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Tarsis Orogot 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 200 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 Tarsis Orogot 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.
