Why Alicia Coutts ranks #176 in Swimming

Alicia Coutts ranks 176th among Swimming athletes on GOAT Rank and 1713th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 88, Longevity 72, Honours 84, Statistics 82. 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 2008–2016 with 9 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2012, 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 olympic gold medals 1, olympic medals 5, world championship titles 3, commonwealth games golds 9.

Immediately ahead sits Lars Frölander on 80.2, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Jessica Ashwood on 80.0. 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.
