Austin Miller has been paid $3,625 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1252nd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the men's pole vault, 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.
Every payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Athletissima 2025 | Pole vault | =7th | $1,250 |
| Xiamen Diamond League 2024 | Pole vault | =4th | $1,625 |
| Diamond League Shanghai 2024 | Pole vault | 7th | $750 |
| All three | Men's pole vault | — | $3,625 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $3,625 is three separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.
