Gilles Biron prize money
Gilles Biron has been paid $4,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2075th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from four paid finishes in the men's 400 m, the best of them 5th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2024 | 400 m | 7th | $750 |
| Prefontaine Classic 2023 | 400 m | 7th | $1,500 |
| Xiamen Diamond League 2023 | 400 m | 5th | $1,250 |
| Memorial Van Damme 2023 | 400 m | 5th | $1,250 |
| All four | Men's 400 m | - | $4,750 |
The four paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $4,750 is four separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the $113,397,000 the 224 meetings on this site paid out between them.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Gilles Biron won?
$4,750, which ranks 2075th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from four paid finishes between 2023 and 2024.
What is Gilles Biron's biggest Diamond League payday?
$1,500, for finishing 7th in the 400 m at the 2023 Prefontaine Classic. 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 Gilles Biron 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 400 m 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 Gilles Biron 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.
