Why Dániel Gyurta ranks #65 in Swimming
Dániel Gyurta ranks 65th among Swimming athletes on GOAT Rank and 656th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 90, Longevity 80, Honours 82, Statistics 84. 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 2004–2016 with 13 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2012, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic gold medals 1, olympic silver medals 1, world championship golds 2, world records 1.
Immediately ahead sits Roland Schoeman on 83.5, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Federica Pellegrini on 83.4. 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.
