Apostolos Parellis prize money
Apostolos Parellis has been paid $10,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1568th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from six paid finishes in the men's discus throw, the best of them 5th.
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.

Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2023 | Discus throw | 8th | $500 |
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2016 | Discus throw | 5th | $2,500 |
| Memorial Van Damme 2016 | Discus throw | 6th | $2,000 |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2015 | Discus throw | 6th | $2,000 |
| Shanghai Golden Grand Prix 2015 | Discus throw | 7th | $1,500 |
| Sainsburys Anniversary Games 2015 | Discus throw | 7th | $1,500 |
| All six | Men's discus throw | - | $10,000 |
The six paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $10,000 is six 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.

season running total
2015 is the biggest of them, $5,000 from three starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Apostolos Parellis in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $10,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Apostolos Parellis won?
$10,000, which ranks 1568th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from six paid finishes between 2015 and 2023.
What is Apostolos Parellis's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,500, for finishing 5th in the discus throw at the 2016 Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 5th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Apostolos Parellis 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 discus throw 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.
Is this everything Apostolos Parellis earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. It holds no championship prize money, 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.
