Herculis EBS prize money
Herculis EBS has paid $6,694,250 to 1,126 athletes across sixteen editions, from 2010 to 2026. Two athletes share the biggest total at the meeting, $46,000 each.
The Diamond League pays by finishing place and by nothing else, so the rate here is the series rate: $10,000 for a win at the 2026 edition, eight places paid in every discipline, and nothing for ninth. It has always been a series meeting, so the final ladder has never applied here. 12 of the 230 disciplines on those programmes have been Diamond+, which pays double.

Two athletes are level at the top of the money list, $46,000 apiece, because the series pays by finishing place and a win is a win in every discipline on the card. Barbora Špotáková, Christian Taylor, Caterine Ibargüen, Shaunae Miller-Uibo and Justin Gatlin have won here four times, more than anyone else. 402 of the 1,126 athletes the meeting has paid were paid at it more than once. The table lists the 40 biggest of 1,126.

What each edition paid
season running total
The line is the running total. A meeting's pot is its rate multiplied by its programme, so the columns move with how many disciplines were on the card rather than with who turned up: the biggest edition here ran 16 disciplines and the smallest 12.
Every discipline held at Herculis EBS
How often each one has been on the programme, and what it has paid
A discipline that has been on every programme has paid more here than one that has been on two, and that is the whole of what the column above ranks: the rate is the same in all of them. Each discipline links to what it has paid across the series.

The five ladders this meeting has paid under
| PLACE | SERIES | SERIES | SERIES | SERIES + | SERIES + |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | $10,000 | $10,000 | $10,000 | $20,000 | $20,000 |
| 2nd | $6,000 | $6,000 | $6,000 | $10,000 | $6,000 |

One column per ladder, and a column covers every discipline the meeting ran while that ladder was in force. The series ladder has been rewritten two times inside the run of editions here, and a win has paid $10,000 under every version of it. What moved is underneath: eighth place was worth $1,000 on the oldest card on this table and $1,000 on the current one, and the eight places together came to $30,000 against $30,000. There is no appearance money in any of it, nothing for a record and nothing for ninth, and where athletes tied they took the places between them and split the money for all of them.
Frequently asked questions
How much prize money has Herculis EBS paid?
$6,694,250 across sixteen editions, to 1,126 athletes from 92 countries. That is 5.9% of everything the Diamond League has paid across the sixteen seasons on this site.
What does a win at Herculis EBS pay?
$10,000, and double that in a Diamond+ discipline. It is the same figure in every discipline on the programme, so a win in the shot put pays what a win in the 100 m pays.
Who has earned the most at Herculis EBS?
Two athletes are level at the top on $46,000 each. 402 of the 1,126 athletes the meeting has paid were paid at it more than once.
How many editions of Herculis EBS are on this site?
Sixteen, from 2010 to 2026. Those programmes ran 230 disciplines between them and produced 1,788 payments. It has been held in two cities over that run: Fontvieille and Monaco. It has carried three names, and the current one is Herculis EBS.
Which disciplines does Herculis EBS run?
37 different ones across the sixteen editions, and never all of them at once: the series rotates its programme, so men's 3000 m steeplechase has been on it eleven times and a discipline's total here is its rate multiplied by how often it was run.
How far down the field does Herculis EBS pay?
Eight places, and ninth pays nothing however fast the race was. 1,788 payments have gone to 1,126 athletes at this meeting, and 162 other finishes in the same result tables were worth nothing at all.
