Why Daniel Komen ranks #96 in Athletics
Daniel Komen ranks 96th among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 588th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 96, Longevity 72, Honours 82, Statistics 90. Those categories are normalised against the full Athletics reference universe of 313 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1994–2003 with 10 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1996, which sets the Peak component at 96. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 96 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world championship golds 1, world indoor titles 1, world records 4, 3000 m world record 7.2.
Immediately ahead sits Ludmila Engquist on 85.1, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is David Rudisha on 86.7. 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.
