Why Sidney Wood ranks #81 in Tennis
Sidney Wood ranks 81st among Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 1737th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 90, Longevity 82, Honours 82, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Tennis reference universe of 250 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1927–1945 with 19 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1931, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes grand slam singles titles 1, age at wimbledon title 19, davis cup ties 7, seasons played 19.
Immediately ahead sits Ekaterina Makarova on 83.4, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Yvon Petra on 83.4. 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.
