Why Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce ranks #2 in Athletics
Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce ranks 2nd among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 24th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 91.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 90, Peak 92, Longevity 92, Honours 92, Statistics 90. Those categories are normalised against the full Athletics reference universe of 309 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 2007–present with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2017, 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 olympic golds 3, world championship golds 10, olympic medals 8, 100 m personal best 10.6.
Immediately ahead sits Carl Lewis on 93.1, a gap of 1.9 points. Directly behind is Allyson Felix on 90.0. 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.
