Fedrick Dacres prize money
Fedrick Dacres has been paid $69,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 219th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from sixteen paid finishes in the men's discus throw, two of them wins.
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
The sixteen paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $69,750 is sixteen separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.1% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the 17 starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2019 is the biggest of them, $32,000 from four starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Fedrick Dacres in 2020, 2022 and 2023, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $69,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Fedrick Dacres won?
$69,750, which ranks 219th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from sixteen paid finishes between 2017 and 2025.
What is Fedrick Dacres's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the discus throw at the 2019 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 1st and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Fedrick Dacres 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 win 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Fedrick Dacres won?
Two of 17, worth $20,000 between them. Three of his appearances came at a final, which paid $18,500.
Has Fedrick Dacres ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
One time. The series pays the first eight and the fields run past twenty, so a ninth place is a Diamond League start that paid nothing at all. He is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Fedrick Dacres 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.
