Feng Bin prize money
Feng Bin has been paid $97,000 by the Diamond League, which ranks 328th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from fourteen paid finishes in the women's discus throw, three 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.

The fourteen paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $97,000 is fourteen separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.09% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.
The World Championships
What Feng Bin did in Tokyo, 2025
| EVENT | PLACE | MARK | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Women's discus throw | 7th | 65.28 m | $6,000 |
The 2025 World Championships paid Feng Bin $6,000 for one finish in Tokyo, against $97,000 from fourteen Diamond League starts between 2019 and 2026. The championships page holds all 49 events and the $8,498,000 they paid out.
The Olympic Games
What Feng Bin won in Paris
| EVENT | MEDAL | EARNED |
|---|---|---|
| Women's discus throw | Silver | - |
The silver in the women's discus throw paid nothing. Only a gold pays, so 97 of the 145 medals awarded on the athletics programme in Paris carried no money at all. The Olympic page holds all 48 golds, the $2,400,000 they paid and what the circuit pays the same champions.

season running total
2026 is the biggest of them, $41,500 from four starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Feng Bin in 2020, 2021 and 2022, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $97,000.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Feng Bin won?
$97,000, which ranks 328th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from fourteen paid finishes between 2019 and 2026.
What is Feng Bin's biggest Diamond League payday?
$30,000, for finishing 1st in the discus throw at the 2026 AG Memorial Van Damme. That is a final, which is why it is the biggest: the final pays two to five times what the same place is worth at a series meeting.
How does the Diamond League decide what Feng Bin gets paid?
Entirely by where she 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 women'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 Feng Bin won?
Three of fourteen, worth $50,000 between them. Two of her appearances came at a final, which paid $42,000.
How much did Feng Bin win at the 2025 World Championships?
$6,000, from one paid final in Tokyo. The championships pay eight places in every event, $70,000 for a title down to $5,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Feng Bin earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The World Championships money above is separate money from a separate payer, and none of it is added together here. It holds no national federation payment, no appearance fee and no sponsorship. What it does hold is every dollar the series itself paid her, priced off the card it published.
Where to next
The rest of the Diamond League money
Diamond League prize money ranks all 3,683 athletes across the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out. One place above Feng Bin is Donald Thomas on $97,208, and one below Kellie Wells on $97,000. Feng Bin is one of 114 China athletes athletics has paid, and China athletics prize money adds them up to $1,813,250 across all six competitions. For the event itself, see women's discus throw prize money. The series has paid out in 20 women's disciplines and Feng Bin has been paid in one of them. The biggest of the rest are women's 100 m, women's 100 m hurdles and women's 400 m. Every meeting she has raced is linked in the table at the top of this page, and AG Memorial Van Damme has its own page across every edition of it. Away from the series, World Championships prize money is Tokyo 2025, $8,498,000 paid eight places deep in every event, and the full final is on the women's discus throw page.
