Why Ranomi Kromowidjojo ranks #46 in Swimming

Ranomi Kromowidjojo ranks 46th among Swimming athletes on GOAT Rank and 429th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 92, Longevity 80, Honours 86, Statistics 86. Those categories are normalised against the full Swimming reference universe of 289 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 2008–2021 with 14 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2012, which sets the Peak component at 92. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic gold medals 3, olympic medals 5, world championship golds 5, european championship golds 15.

Immediately ahead sits Tatjana Smith on 85.5, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Caeleb Dressel on 85.0. 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.
