Why Carol Mann ranks #37 in Golf
Carol Mann ranks 37th among Golf athletes on GOAT Rank and 1762nd of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 92, Longevity 84, Honours 84, Statistics 88. Those categories are normalised against the full Golf reference universe of 266 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1961–1981 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1968, which sets the Peak component at 92. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes major titles 2, lpga wins 38, wins in one season 10, vare trophy wins 1.
Immediately ahead sits Byron Nelson on 85.2, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Johnny Goodman on 85.2. 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.
