Why Boglárka Kapás ranks #164 in Swimming

Boglárka Kapás ranks 164th among Swimming athletes on GOAT Rank and 1620th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 86, Longevity 82, Honours 82, Statistics 80. Those categories are normalised against the full Swimming reference universe of 289 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 2009–2022 with 14 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2018, which sets the Peak component at 86. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 86 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world championship titles 1, olympic medals 1, european titles 3, hungarian records 5.

Immediately ahead sits Yui Ohashi on 80.7, a gap of 0.2 points. Directly behind is Craig Beardsley on 80.5. 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.
