Why Helen Elliot ranks #22 in Table Tennis
Helen Elliot ranks 22nd among Table Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 2036th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 81.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 90, Longevity 78, Honours 80, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Table Tennis reference universe of 296 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1946–1957 with 10 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1949, 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 titles 2, world championship medals 5, scottish national titles 10, english open titles 2.
Immediately ahead sits Patrick Franziska on 81.1, a gap of -0.1 points. Directly behind is Wang Nan on 80.8. 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.
