Why Algernon Kingscote ranks #95 in Tennis
Algernon Kingscote ranks 95th among Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 1884th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 88, Longevity 84, Honours 82, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Tennis reference universe of 250 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1909–1928 with 20 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1918, 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 grand slam singles titles 1, wimbledon semi-finals 2, davis cup ties 12, seasons played 20.
Immediately ahead sits Jack Kramer on 82.9, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Art Larsen on 82.9. 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.
