Why Wu Yang ranks #69 in Table Tennis
Wu Yang ranks 69th among Table Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 3524th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 90, Longevity 74, Honours 86, Statistics 84. 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 2011–2019 with 9 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2015, 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 world team titles 2, asian championship titles 2, world championship medals 3, pro tour titles 4.
Immediately ahead sits Ni Xia Lian on 82.6, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Tage Flisberg on 82.5. 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.
