Ronald Musagala prize money
Ronald Musagala has been paid $25,500 by the Diamond League, which ranks 993rd of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid. It came from eight paid finishes in the men's 1500 m, men's 800 m and men's mile, one of them a win.
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.

| Athletissima 2019 | 1500 m | 5th | $2,500 |

| Shanghai Golden Grand Prix 2014 | 800 m | 6th | $2,000 |
| All eight | three disciplines | - | $25,500 |
The eight paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $25,500 is eight 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.

season running total
2019 is the biggest of them, $18,500 from three starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Ronald Musagala in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2020, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $25,500.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Ronald Musagala won?
$25,500, which ranks 993rd of the 3,683 athletes the series has paid across the 224 meetings on this site. It came from eight paid finishes between 2014 and 2021.
What is Ronald Musagala's biggest Diamond League payday?
$10,000, for finishing 1st in the 1500 m at the 2019 Meeting de Paris. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 1st and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Ronald Musagala 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 win is worth the same in the men's 1500 m 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.
How many Diamond League meetings has Ronald Musagala won?
One of eight, worth $10,000 between them. One of his appearance came at a final, which paid $6,000.
Is this everything Ronald Musagala 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.
