Why Jonas Björkman ranks #22 in Tennis
Jonas Björkman ranks 22nd among Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 409th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 84.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 88, Longevity 88, Honours 86, 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 1991–2008 with 15 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1997, which sets the Peak component at 88. Peak 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 doubles titles 9, weeks at doubles no. 1 80, davis cup titles 3, atp doubles titles 54.
Immediately ahead sits Andy Murray on 85.4, a gap of 0.9 points. Directly behind is Anders Järryd on 84.5. 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.
