Ryuji Miura prize money
Ryuji Miura has been paid $34,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 416th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from twelve paid finishes in the men's 3000 m steeplechase and men's 3000 m, 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.
Every payment
Where he finished, and what the card paid for it
The twelve paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $34,750 is twelve separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.06% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them. Five of the 17 starts paid nothing, because the series pays eight deep and the fields run past twenty.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Ryuji Miura won?
$34,750, which ranks 416th of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from twelve paid finishes between 2022 and 2026.
What is Ryuji Miura's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 2nd in the 3000 m steeplechase at the 2026 Herculis EBS. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 2nd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Ryuji Miura 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 3000 m steeplechase 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 Ryuji Miura ever raced a Diamond League meeting for nothing?
Five times. 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 are in the result tables on this site either way.
How much did Ryuji Miura win at the 2025 World Championships?
$5,000, from one paid final in Tokyo. The championships pay eight places in every event, $70,000 for a title down to $5,000 for 8th.
Is this everything Ryuji Miura earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. The World Championships 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.
