Herculis 2024 prize money

Q: How much prize money did the 2024 Herculis pay?

$322,750 in all, across thirteen disciplines. Every discipline paid the same $25,000, because the series applies one card to all of them.

Q: What did winning at the 2024 Herculis pay?

$10,000. That is 40% of what the discipline pays out in total, and it is the same figure whether the win came in the 100 m or the javelin.

Q: Who earned the most at the 2024 Herculis?

Thirteen athletes tied at the top on $10,000 each, because the series pays by finishing place and by nothing else: a win in the shot put is worth exactly what a win in the 100 m is. Every athlete paid here was paid once, because nobody doubled up.

The 2024 Herculis paid $322,750 across thirteen disciplines at Stade Louis II, Fontvieille, 12 July 2024. Thirteen athletes left with the biggest cheque of the day, $10,000 each.

The Diamond League pays by finishing place. One card sets what first through eighth is worth and the same figure applies in every discipline on it, so the tables below are the same ladder thirteen times over. Ninth place pays nothing, however good the field.

First place takes 40% of what a discipline pays out and eighth takes 2.0%. That ladder is repeated thirteen times at this meeting and it is the whole of how the Diamond League pays: no appearance money, no record bonus, nothing for ninth. Where athletes tie, they take the places they occupy between them, the money for those places is added up and split equally, and the meeting's total does not move. Eight athletes finished level here.

Every discipline on the same tier pays out the identical amount, so the last column is one figure repeated rather than a ranking. What differs between the rows is who was standing in each place when it was handed over.

100 payments to 100 athletes, because nobody was paid twice. The money went to 39 countries. Ninth place and below is in the result tables and paid nothing, so it is not here.

Frequently asked questions

How much prize money did the 2024 Herculis pay?

$322,750 in all, across thirteen disciplines. Every discipline paid the same $25,000, because the series applies one card to all of them.

What did winning at the 2024 Herculis pay?

$10,000. That is 40% of what the discipline pays out in total, and it is the same figure whether the win came in the 100 m or the javelin.

How far down the field does the Diamond League pay?

Eight places, and ninth pays nothing. 116 athletes finished a discipline at this meeting and 100 of them were paid, so 16 were in a result table here for nothing.

Who earned the most at the 2024 Herculis?

Thirteen athletes tied at the top on $10,000 each, because the series pays by finishing place and by nothing else: a win in the shot put is worth exactly what a win in the 100 m is. Every athlete paid here was paid once, because nobody doubled up.

How is a tie paid at the Diamond League?

The tied athletes take the places they occupy and the money for all of those places is added up and split equally. Eight athletes finished level at this meeting, which is why eight figures in the tables below are not round numbers off the card. The meeting's total is unchanged either way.

Is the Herculis worth more than a normal Diamond League meeting?

No. It is a series meeting and it pays the series card, which is the same card every other series meeting of 2024 paid. The final is the one that pays more.

Where to next

The rest of the Diamond League money

The 2024 Diamond League ran fifteen meetings and paid $6,752,000, and Diamond League prize money covers all 104 meetings on this site and the $53,753,250 they paid between them. Herculis has its own page across every edition of it, and the other six are 2026, 2025, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2019.
