Why Ajayi Agbebaku ranks #172 in Athletics
Ajayi Agbebaku ranks 172nd among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 1497th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 88, Longevity 78, Honours 84, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Athletics reference universe of 308 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1980–1988 with 9 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1983, which sets the Peak component at 88. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world championship medals 1, commonwealth games gold medals 1, african championship gold medals 1, personal best (m) 17.26.
Immediately ahead sits Marina Azyabina on 82.2, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Amber Anning on 82.1. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
