Why Matilda Ekholm ranks #63 in Table Tennis
Matilda Ekholm ranks 63rd among Table Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 3500th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 88, Longevity 88, Honours 80, Statistics 84. 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 2001–2021 with 21 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2015, 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 european championship titles 2, european medals 4, swedish titles 9, olympic appearances 2.
Immediately ahead sits He Zhili on 82.8, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Damien Éloi on 82.8. 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.
