Why Maureen Connolly ranks #64 in Tennis
Maureen Connolly ranks 64th among Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 806th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 94, Longevity 60, Honours 86, Statistics 86. Those categories are normalised against the full Tennis reference universe of 250 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1949–1954 with 6 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1953, which sets the Peak component at 94. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes grand slam titles 9, calendar grand slams 1, wimbledon titles 3, grand slam finals 10.
Immediately ahead sits Barbora Krejčíková on 79.6, a gap of -2.8 points. Directly behind is Stan Wawrinka on 77.2. 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.
