Why Jim Furyk ranks #17 in Golf

Jim Furyk ranks 17th among Golf athletes on GOAT Rank and 1663rd of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 92, Longevity 92, Honours 86, Statistics 90. Those categories are normalised against the full Golf reference universe of 266 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1992–present with 31 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2003, 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 major titles 1, pga tour wins 17, ryder cup appearances 9, lowest pga tour round 58.

Immediately ahead sits Masashi Ozaki on 87.5, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Bobby Jones on 86.9. 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.
