Why Bai Xue ranks #266 in Athletics
Bai Xue ranks 266th among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 2749th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 77.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 90, Longevity 66, Honours 80, Statistics 78. 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 2005–2014 with 10 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2009, 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 world outdoor titles 1, marathon personal best 2.2338, national games titles 1, global championships contested 3.
Immediately ahead sits Karsten Warholm on 84.7, a gap of 7.3 points. Directly behind is Georgia Hunter Bell on 77.3. 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.
