Why Yohan Blake ranks #76 in Athletics
Yohan Blake ranks 76th among Athletics athletes on GOAT Rank and 447th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 86.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 92, Longevity 82, Honours 86, Statistics 88. Those categories are normalised against the full Athletics reference universe of 313 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 2007–present with 19 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2012, which sets the Peak component at 92. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic gold medals 2, world championship golds 4, 100 m personal best 9.69, 200 m personal best 19.26.
Immediately ahead sits Tyson Gay on 86.2, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Wilson Kipketer on 86.0. 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.
