Philip Milanov prize money
Philip Milanov has been paid $10,250 by the Diamond League, which ranks 823rd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from five paid finishes in the men's discus 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.

Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2024 | Discus throw | 6th | $2,000 |
| Allianz Memorial Van Damme 2021 | Discus throw | 7th | $750 |
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2019 | Discus throw | 9th | — |
| Bislett Games 2018 | Discus throw | 6th | $2,000 |
| Meeting de Paris 2018 | Discus throw | 7th | $1,500 |
| Bislett Games 2017 | Discus throw | 3rd | $4,000 |
| All six | Men's discus throw | — | $10,250 |
The five paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $10,250 is five separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.02% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. One of the six starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

season running total
2017 is the biggest of them, $4,000 from one start. No Diamond League meeting paid Philip Milanov in 2019, 2020, 2022 and 2023, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $10,250.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Philip Milanov won?
$10,250, which ranks 823rd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from five paid finishes between 2017 and 2024.
What is Philip Milanov's biggest Diamond League payday?
$4,000, for finishing 3rd in the discus throw at the 2017 Bislett Games. 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 Philip Milanov 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 discus 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 Philip Milanov 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. He is in the result table on this site either way.
Is this everything Philip Milanov earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 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.
