Why Zoran Kalinić ranks #113 in Table Tennis

Zoran Kalinić ranks 113th among Table Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 3708th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 79.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 84, Longevity 84, Honours 78, Statistics 80. 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 1975–1996 with 22 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1986, which sets the Peak component at 84. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 84 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world championship medals 2, european championship medals 3, olympic appearances 2, career world ranking best 5.

Immediately ahead sits Aruna Quadri on 79.7, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Panagiotis Gionis on 79.6. 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.
