Tim van de Velde prize money
Tim van de Velde has been paid $2,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2854th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from one paid finish in the men's 3000 m steeplechase, and it was 7th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2025 | 3000 m steeplechase | 7th | $2,000 |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2025 | 3000 m steeplechase | 9th | - |
| All two | Men's 3000 m steeplechase | - | $2,000 |
The one paid figure add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $2,000 is one 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. One of the two starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Tim van de Velde won?
$2,000, which ranks 2854th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from one paid finish in 2025.
What is Tim van de Velde's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,000, for finishing 7th in the Diamond+ 3000 m steeplechase at the 2025 AG Memorial Van Damme. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 7th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Tim van de Velde 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 steeplechase 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.
Has Tim van de Velde ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
One time. The series pays the first eight and the fields run past twenty, so a ninth place is a Diamond League start that paid nothing at all. That start is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Tim van de Velde 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.
