Why Se Ri Pak ranks #40 in Golf
Se Ri Pak ranks 40th among Golf athletes on GOAT Rank and 785th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 86, Longevity 84, Honours 82, Statistics 82. Those categories are normalised against the full Golf reference universe of 266 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1996–2016 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2001, 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 major titles 5, lpga tour wins 25, rookie of the year 1, hall of fame inductions 1.
Immediately ahead sits Greg Norman on 81.7, a gap of -0.5 points. Directly behind is Betsy King on 82.2. 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.
