Genki Dean prize money
Genki Dean has been paid $10,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1556th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from seven paid finishes in the men's javelin throw, the best of them 3rd.
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.

| Weltklasse Zürich 2023 | Javelin throw | 7th | $750 |
| All eight | Men's javelin throw | - | $10,500 |
The seven paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $10,500 is seven separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the eight starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Genki Dean won?
$10,500, which ranks 1556th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from seven paid finishes between 2023 and 2025.
What is Genki Dean's biggest Diamond League payday?
$3,500, for finishing 3rd in the javelin throw at the 2024 Weltklasse Zürich. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 3rd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Genki Dean 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 javelin 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.
Has Genki Dean 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. That start is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Genki Dean 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.
