The 2016 edition of the IAAF Diamond League gets underway on Friday in Doha (6) and is followed by a meeting in Shanghai on Saturday May 14, providing an outstanding curtain-raiser to this year’s series.

Once again, the series of 14 meetings are each offering US$480,000 in prize money and the IAAF Diamond League showcases 32 event disciplines which are carefully distributed among the meetings.

In each of the event disciplines, there is a Diamond Race with points available throughout the season.

The overall winner of each of the 32 Diamond Races will receive a US$40,000 cash prize and a spectacular Diamond Trophy.

Combine the individual meeting prize money with the Diamond Race cash, and the IAAF Diamond League is offering a total of US$8 million in prize money in 2016.
