Borja Vivas prize money
Borja Vivas has been paid $2,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2501st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from two paid finishes in the men's shot put, the best of them 7th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Qatar Athletic Super Grand Prix 2015 | Shot put | 7th | $1,500 |
| DN Galan 2014 | Shot put | 8th | $1,000 |
| All two | Men's shot put | - | $2,500 |
The two paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $2,500 is two separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Borja Vivas won?
$2,500, which ranks 2501st of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from two paid finishes between 2014 and 2015.
What is Borja Vivas's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,500, for finishing 7th in the shot put at the 2015 Qatar Athletic Super Grand Prix. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 7th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Borja Vivas 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 shot put 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 Borja Vivas 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.
