Why Amber Anning ranks #173 in Athletics
Amber Anning ranks 173rd among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 1499th 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 80, Peak 90, Longevity 72, Honours 84, Statistics 86. 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 2018–present with 9 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2023, 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 olympic medals 1, world championship medals 2, ncaa titles 2, british titles 2.
Immediately ahead sits Ajayi Agbebaku on 82.1, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Christian Taylor on 82.0. 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.
