Why Bernard Barmasai ranks #136 in Athletics
Bernard Barmasai ranks 136th among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 1192nd of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 94, Longevity 74, Honours 80, Statistics 88. 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 1995–2004 with 10 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1997, 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 world records set 1, world championship medals 1, personal best in seconds 4855, commonwealth medals 1.
Immediately ahead sits Kelsey-Lee Barber on 83.8, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Ana Ambrazienė on 83.8. 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.
