Why Karrie Webb ranks #12 in Golf
Karrie Webb ranks 12th among Golf athletes on GOAT Rank and 557th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 86.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 88, Longevity 90, Honours 86, Statistics 88. 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 1994–2022 with 18 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2000, which sets the Peak component at 88. 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 41, player of the year 2, vare trophies 2.
Immediately ahead sits Harry Vardon on 88.6, a gap of 2.1 points. Directly behind is Arnold Palmer on 87.0. 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.
