Why Allison Beckford ranks #214 in Athletics

Allison Beckford ranks 214th among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 1767th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 86, Longevity 80, Honours 82, 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 1997–2008 with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2001, which sets the Peak component at 86. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 86 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic medals 1, world championship medals 2, personal best (s) 50.26, olympic appearances 2.

Immediately ahead sits Nadia Battocletti on 82.4, a gap of 1.7 points. Directly behind is Nathon Allen on 80.7. 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.
