Why Frédérick Bousquet ranks #159 in Swimming

Frédérick Bousquet ranks 159th among Swimming athletes on GOAT Rank and 1551st of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 90, Longevity 80, Honours 78, Statistics 82. 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 2000–2016 with 17 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2009, 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 world records 1, olympic medals 1, world championship medals 3, european titles 3.

Immediately ahead sits Charlotte Bonnet on 80.9, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Novella Calligaris on 80.9. 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.
