Why Rodney Heath ranks #146 in Tennis
Rodney Heath ranks 146th among Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 1664th of 2289 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 88, Longevity 76, Honours 76, Statistics 78. Those categories are normalised against the full Tennis reference universe of 251 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1905–1919 with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1905, 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 australian titles 2, australian doubles titles 1, grand slam titles 3, career span in years 15.
Immediately ahead sits Tracy Austin on 77.2, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Emma Navarro 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.
