Why Gordon Lowe ranks #111 in Tennis
Gordon Lowe ranks 111th among Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 1996th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 86, Longevity 88, Honours 80, Statistics 84. 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 1907–1929 with 23 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1915, which sets the Peak component at 86. Longevity is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes grand slam singles titles 1, davis cup ties 14, seasons played 23, national titles 2.
Immediately ahead sits William Renshaw on 82.4, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Svetlana Kuznetsova on 82.3. 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.
