Why Gregorio Paltrinieri ranks #18 in Swimming
Gregorio Paltrinieri ranks 18th among Swimming athletes on GOAT Rank and 189th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 92, Longevity 86, Honours 88, Statistics 88. 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 2011–present with 15 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2015, 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 gold medals 1, olympic medals 5, world championship golds 7, european championship golds 15.
Immediately ahead sits Yana Klochkova on 87.9, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Chad le Clos on 87.8. 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.
