DIAMOND LEAGUE · LONDON · 7 EDITIONS

London Athletics Meet prize money

London Athletics Meet has paid $3,419,250 to 693 athletes across seven editions, from 2010 to 2026. Malaika Mihambo has taken more of it than anyone, $40,000.

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 115 disciplines on those programmes have been Diamond+, which pays double.

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 27 disciplines and the smallest 14.

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.

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 London Athletics Meet paid?

$3,419,250 across seven editions, to 693 athletes from 77 countries. That is 3.0% of everything the Diamond League has paid across the sixteen seasons on this site.

What does a win at London Athletics Meet 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 London Athletics Meet?

Malaika Mihambo, on $40,000 from three paid finishes, three of them wins. 168 of the 693 athletes the meeting has paid were paid at it more than once.

How many editions of London Athletics Meet are on this site?

Seven, from 2010 to 2026. Those programmes ran 115 disciplines between them and produced 898 payments. It has carried two names, and the current one is London Athletics Meet.

Which disciplines does London Athletics Meet run?

36 different ones across the seven editions, and never all of them at once: the series rotates its programme, so women's 800 m has been on it six times and a discipline's total here is its rate multiplied by how often it was run.

How far down the field does London Athletics Meet pay?

Eight places, and ninth pays nothing however fast the race was. 898 payments have gone to 693 athletes at this meeting, and 89 other finishes in the same result tables were worth nothing at all.
