Why Petr Korbel ranks #145 in Table Tennis
Petr Korbel ranks 145th among Table Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 3827th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 77.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 70, Peak 80, Longevity 88, Honours 72, Statistics 78. 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 1988–2012 with 25 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2000, which sets the Peak component at 80. Longevity 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 olympic appearances 5, european championship medals 3, world championship appearances 12, career world ranking best 11.
Immediately ahead sits Anton Källberg on 77.3, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Zhang Jike on 77.0. 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.
