Luka Bošković prize money
Luka Bošković has been paid $5,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 1987th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from two paid finishes in the men's long jump, 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.
Every payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| Athletissima 2026 | Long jump | 3rd | $4,000 |
| Weltklasse Zürich 2026 | Long jump | 7th | $1,500 |
| All two | Men's long jump | - | $5,500 |
The two paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $5,500 is two 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.

Luka Bošković stood in one Ultimate Championship final in Budapest and finished outside the money. World Athletics pays the first three in each event, $150,000, $75,000 and $40,000, and publishes no rate below third, so there is no figure to put against where he finished. The championship page holds all 28 events and what each one paid.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Luka Bošković won?
$5,500, which ranks 1987th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from two paid finishes in 2026.
What is Luka Bošković's biggest Diamond League payday?
$4,000, for finishing 3rd in the Diamond+ long jump at the 2026 Athletissima. 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 Luka Bošković 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 long jump 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 Luka Bošković 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.
