Why Bruno Fratus ranks #106 in Swimming

Bruno Fratus ranks 106th among Swimming athletes on GOAT Rank and 1133rd of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 79.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 84, Longevity 82, Honours 74, 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 2009–2023 with 15 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2011, 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 olympic bronze medals 1, world championship medals 3, pan american golds 2, south american records 4.

Immediately ahead sits Katharine Berkoff on 79.1, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Felix Auböck on 78.6. 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.
