Why Francesca Schiavone ranks #34 in Tennis

Francesca Schiavone ranks 34th among Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 603rd of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 72, Peak 86, Longevity 90, Honours 78, Statistics 80. Those categories are normalised against the full Tennis reference universe of 250 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1998–2018 with 18 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2010, which sets the Peak component at 86. Longevity 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 grand slam singles titles 1, wta titles 8, fed cup titles 4, career-high ranking 4.

Immediately ahead sits David Ferrer on 80.6, a gap of -0.2 points. Directly behind is Maria Sharapova on 82.2. 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.
