Why Alexander Dale Oen ranks #182 in Swimming
Alexander Dale Oen ranks 182nd among Swimming athletes on GOAT Rank and 1757th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 79.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 90, Longevity 70, Honours 82, Statistics 80. Those categories are normalised against the full Swimming reference universe of 289 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 2003–2012 with 10 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2011, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world championship titles 1, olympic medals 1, european titles 2, norwegian records 10.
Immediately ahead sits James Guy on 79.9, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Coby Carrozza on 79.9. 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.
