Why Gastón Gaudio ranks #142 in Tennis

Gastón Gaudio ranks 142nd among Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 1646th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 77.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 70, Peak 90, Longevity 74, Honours 74, Statistics 82. Those categories are normalised against the full Tennis reference universe of 251 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1996–2011 with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2004, 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 grand slam singles titles 1, atp titles 8, career-high ranking 5, clay-court match wins 250.

Immediately ahead sits Zheng Qinwen on 77.4, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Robin Söderling on 77.3. 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.
