Why Percival Bromfield ranks #42 in Table Tennis

Percival Bromfield ranks 42nd among Table Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 3437th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 90, Longevity 76, Honours 86, Statistics 86. 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 1926–1935 with 10 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1930, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world championship medals 6, world championship doubles finals 2, english titles 3, world championship appearances 7.

Immediately ahead sits Ma Wenge on 83.8, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Li Jiao on 83.7. 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.
