Why Lexi Thompson ranks #88 in Golf
Lexi Thompson ranks 88th among Golf athletes on GOAT Rank and 1031st of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 66.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 62, Peak 74, Longevity 70, Honours 58, Statistics 70. 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 2010–present with 14 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2014, which sets the Peak component at 74. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 74 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes major titles 1, lpga tour wins 11, solheim cup appearances 6, career top-10 finishes 100.
Immediately ahead sits Jordan Spieth on 73.8, a gap of 7.4 points. Directly behind is Alex Norén on 62.1. 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.
