Brian Raats prize money
Brian Raats has been paid $1,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1735th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from two paid finishes in the men's high jump, the best of them 6th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kamila Skolimowska Memorial 2024 | High jump | 6th | $1,000 |
| Golden Gala Pietro Mennea 2024 | High jump | =8th | $250 |
| All two | Men's high jump | — | $1,250 |
The two paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $1,250 is two separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Brian Raats won?
$1,250, which ranks 1735th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from two paid finishes in 2024.
What is Brian Raats's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,000, for finishing 6th in the high jump at the 2024 Kamila Skolimowska Memorial. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 6th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Brian Raats 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 high jump 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 Brian Raats earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 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.
