The ten paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $24,500 is ten separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.02% 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 Ladislav Prášil won?
$24,500, which ranks 1018th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from ten paid finishes between 2012 and 2014.
What is Ladislav Prášil's biggest Diamond League payday?
$4,000, for finishing 3rd in the shot put at the 2013 British Grand Prix. 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 Ladislav Prášil 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 shot put 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 Ladislav Prášil 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.
