Adrián Ben prize money
Adrián Ben has been paid $7,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1736th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from seven paid finishes in the men's 800 m and men's 1500 m, the best of them 4th.
The Diamond League pays by finishing place and nothing else. A published card sets what first through eighth is worth, the same figure in every discipline at that meeting, and ninth pays nothing.

| Meeting de Paris 2021 | 800 m | 8th | $500 |
| All nine | two disciplines | - | $7,750 |
The seven paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $7,750 is seven separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. Two of the nine starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2021 is the biggest of them, $4,250 from four starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Adrián Ben in 2023 and 2025, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $7,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Adrián Ben won?
$7,750, which ranks 1736th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from seven paid finishes between 2021 and 2026.
What is Adrián Ben's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,000, for finishing 4th in the 800 m at the 2021 Bauhausgalan. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 4th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Adrián Ben gets paid?
Entirely by where he finishes. The series publishes one rate card a season and applies it to every discipline at every meeting, so a place is worth the same in the men's 800 m as it is in the shot put on the same afternoon. Eight places are paid and ninth pays nothing. There is no bonus for a record and no share of a gate.
Has Adrián Ben ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Two times. The series pays the first eight and the fields run past twenty, so a ninth place is a Diamond League start that paid nothing at all. Those starts are in the result tables on this site either way.
How much did Adrián Ben win at the 2025 World Championships?
$5,000, from one paid final in Tokyo. The championships pay eight places in every event, $70,000 for a title down to $5,000 for 8th.
How much has Adrián Ben won at the World Indoor Championships?
$4,000, from one paid final in Nanjing 2025. An indoor title pays $40,000 and the ladder runs six places deep, down to $4,000 for 6th, the same in every event on the programme and the same for a relay team.
Is this everything Adrián Ben earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Championships and World Indoor Championships money above is separate money from a separate payer, and none of it is added together here. It holds no national federation payment, no appearance fee and no sponsorship. What it does hold is every dollar the series itself paid him, priced off the card it published.
Where to next
The rest of the Diamond League money
Diamond League prize money ranks all 3,683 athletes across the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out.

The biggest of the rest are men's 100 m, men's pole vault and men's 200 m. Every meeting he has raced is linked in the table at the top of this page, and Shanghai Diamond League has its own page across every edition of it. Away from the series, World Championships prize money is Tokyo 2025, $8,498,000 paid eight places deep in every event, and the full final is on the men's 1500 metres page. Indoor championships prize money is the Nanjing 2025 and Toruń 2026 championships, $4,664,000 put up across 53 finals, and the indoor final is on the men's 1500 metres page.
