Why Andrey Abduvaliyev ranks #71 in Athletics

Andrey Abduvaliyev ranks 71st among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 633rd of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 94, Longevity 78, Honours 88, Statistics 90. 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 1988–1999 with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1992, which sets the Peak component at 94. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic gold medals 1, world championship titles 2, personal best in centimetres 8458, world championship medals 2.

Immediately ahead sits Letesenbet Gidey on 87.0, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Jarmila Kratochvílová on 88.7. 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.
