Why Meg Mallon ranks #27 in Golf

Meg Mallon ranks 27th among Golf athletes on GOAT Rank and 709th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 88, Longevity 88, Honours 84, Statistics 84. 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 1987–2013 with 18 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1991, 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 major titles 4, lpga wins 18, solheim cup appearances 8, solheim cup wins as captain 1.

Immediately ahead sits Amy Alcott on 84.1, a gap of 0.5 points. Directly behind is Juli Inkster on 83.0. 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.
