Why Iryna Sekachova ranks #191 in Athletics
Iryna Sekachova ranks 191st among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 1608th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 81.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 86, Longevity 86, Honours 80, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Athletics reference universe of 308 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1997–2012 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2006, which sets the Peak component at 86. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 86 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes european championship medals 1, ukrainian titles 6, olympic appearances 3, personal best (m) 74.
Immediately ahead sits Anatoliy Bondarchuk on 81.5, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Trevor Barry on 81.5. 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.
