Why Roswitha Beier ranks #230 in Swimming
Roswitha Beier ranks 230th among Swimming athletes on GOAT Rank and 2308th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 77.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 86, Longevity 66, Honours 82, Statistics 82. 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 1974–1978 with 5 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1976, which sets the Peak component at 86. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 86 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic medals 1, world championship medals 1, european championship medals 2, national titles 3.
Immediately ahead sits Sophie Angus on 77.8, a gap of 0.2 points. Directly behind is Yuliya Bogdanova on 77.5. 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.
