Why Lin Yun-ju ranks #138 in Table Tennis
Lin Yun-ju ranks 138th among Table Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 3806th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 77.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 86, Longevity 70, Honours 78, Statistics 80. Those categories are normalised against the full Table Tennis reference universe of 291 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 2017–present with 9 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2021, which sets the Peak component at 86. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 86 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic medals 1, world tour titles 3, asian championship medals 3, career high world ranking 4.
Immediately ahead sits Dora Beregi on 77.8, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Manika Batra on 77.8. 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.
