Why Suzann Pettersen ranks #51 in Golf

Suzann Pettersen ranks 51st among Golf athletes on GOAT Rank and 836th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 86, Longevity 82, Honours 80, 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 2000–2019 with 17 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2007, 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 2, lpga wins 15, ladies european tour wins 7, solheim cup appearances 9.

Immediately ahead sits Anna Nordqvist on 80.1, a gap of -0.3 points. Directly behind is Lydia Ko on 81.1. 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.
