Why Bartosz Kurek ranks #34 in Volleyball

Bartosz Kurek ranks 34th among Volleyball athletes on GOAT Rank and 916th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 76.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 84, Longevity 78, Honours 72, Statistics 76. Those categories are normalised against the full Volleyball reference universe of 310 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 2005–present with 20 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2014, which sets the Peak component at 84. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 84 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world championship golds 2, world championship mvp awards 1, olympic medals 1, polish league titles 4.

Immediately ahead sits Sheilla Castro on 76.3, a gap of -0.4 points. Directly behind is Wilfredo León on 76.2. 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.
