Łukasz Grzeszczuk prize money
Łukasz Grzeszczuk has been paid $3,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 2309th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from two paid finishes in the men's javelin throw, the best of them 6th.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting Areva 2014 | Javelin throw | 6th | $2,000 |
| Athletissima 2013 | Javelin throw | 7th | $1,500 |
| All two | Men's javelin throw | - | $3,500 |
The two paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $3,500 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.
Season by season
2013 to 2014, in the order it was won
season running total
2014 is the biggest of them, $2,000 from one start. Every season from 2013 to 2014 paid him something. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $3,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Łukasz Grzeszczuk won?
$3,500, which ranks 2309th of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from two paid finishes between 2013 and 2014.
What is Łukasz Grzeszczuk's biggest Diamond League payday?
$2,000, for finishing 6th in the javelin throw at the 2014 Meeting Areva. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 6th and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Łukasz Grzeszczuk 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.
Is this everything Łukasz Grzeszczuk 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.
