Why Anatoliy Bondarchuk ranks #190 in Athletics

Anatoliy Bondarchuk ranks 190th among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 1597th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 81.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 90, Longevity 76, Honours 80, Statistics 82. 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 1965–1976 with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1972, 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 gold medals 1, olympic medals 2, european championship golds 1, world records set 2.

Immediately ahead sits Sanjay Ayre on 81.6, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Iryna Sekachova on 81.5. 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.
