In a major restructure, the IAAF Diamond League has adopted a championship-style model with the finalists competing for a prize pool of $3.2 million (Sh330m).

 Next season, athletes will earn points in the first 12 League meetings to qualify for two final meetings where $100,000 (Sh10.3m) will be at stake in each of the 32 Diamond disciplines, including $50,000 for each winner.

 In previous seasons, athletes accumulated points throughout the IAAF Diamond League season with the overall winner of each event being the athlete with the most points.
