Why Wilmer Allison ranks #60 in Tennis
Wilmer Allison ranks 60th among Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 1514th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 84.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 90, Longevity 80, Honours 86, Statistics 86. 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 1927–1938 with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1935, 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, grand slam doubles titles 3, davis cup ties 16, wimbledon finals 1.
Immediately ahead sits René Lacoste on 84.6, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Jonas Björkman on 84.5. 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.
