The Diamond League track and field series will increase its prize money to $9.24 million for the 2025 season, the highest since its inception in 2010. This represents nearly a 30% rise from the 2021-2024 period, with individual event prizes ranging from $30,000 to $100,000. The 2025 season will feature 14 one-day meets and a two-day final in Zurich in August. The increase comes as World Athletics president Sebastian Coe seeks to become president of the International Olympic Committee. The decision aims to enhance athlete rewards and maintain the long-term viability of the series. This development follows the announcement of Michael Johnson's new Grand Slam Track league, which will offer even higher prize money in its four meets starting in 2025.
