Why Juli Inkster ranks #28 in Golf
Juli Inkster ranks 28th among Golf athletes on GOAT Rank and 711th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 82, Longevity 90, Honours 84, Statistics 82. 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 1983–2021 with 26 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1984, which sets the Peak component at 82. Longevity 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 major titles 7, lpga tour wins 31, solheim cup appearances 9, us amateur titles 3.
Immediately ahead sits Meg Mallon on 83.6, a gap of 0.6 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.
