Why Thiago Monteiro ranks #142 in Table Tennis
Thiago Monteiro ranks 142nd among Table Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 3817th 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 70, Peak 80, Longevity 86, Honours 76, Statistics 78. Those categories are normalised against the full Table Tennis reference universe of 291 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1995–2018 with 24 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2007, which sets the Peak component at 80. Longevity 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 pan american games golds 2, latin american titles 5, olympic appearances 4, career world ranking best 32.
Immediately ahead sits Tazuko Abe on 77.6, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Shin Yu-bin on 77.4. 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.
