Andreas Almgren prize money
Andreas Almgren has been paid $32,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 429th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from nine paid finishes in the men's 5000 m, men's 3000 m and men's 1500 m, one of them a win.
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.

The nine paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $32,750 is nine separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.06% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. Three of the twelve starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Andreas Almgren won?
$32,750, which ranks 429th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from nine paid finishes between 2022 and 2026.
What is Andreas Almgren's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the 5000 m at the 2025 Bauhausgalan. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 1st and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Andreas Almgren 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 win is worth the same in the men's 5000 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Andreas Almgren won?
One of twelve, worth $10,000 between them. One of his appearance came at a final, which paid $7,000.
Has Andreas Almgren ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Three 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. He are in the result tables on this site either way.
How much did Andreas Almgren win at the 2025 World Championships?
$22,000, 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.
Is this everything Andreas Almgren earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. The World 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.
