Rojé Stona prize money
Rojé Stona has been paid $37,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 783rd of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from ten paid finishes in the men's discus throw, the best of them 2nd.
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.

The ten paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $37,500 is ten separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.03% 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 Rojé Stona won?
$37,500, which ranks 783rd of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from ten paid finishes between 2024 and 2026.
What is Rojé Stona's biggest Diamond League payday?
$7,000, for finishing 3rd in the discus throw at the 2026 AG Memorial Van Damme. 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 Rojé Stona 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.
Is this everything Rojé Stona earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 224 meetings. The Olympic money above is separate money from a separate payer, and none of it is added together here. It holds 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.
