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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bauhausgalan 2025 | Pole vault | =5th | $2,750 |
The one paid figure add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $2,750 is one 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.

How does the Diamond League decide what Daniel Keaton gets paid?
Entirely by where he finishes.
