Why Zoran Primorac ranks #21 in Table Tennis
Zoran Primorac ranks 21st among Table Tennis athletes on GOAT Rank and 3349th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 90, Longevity 94, Honours 82, Statistics 82. 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 1985–2012 with 28 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1992, which sets the Peak component at 90. Longevity is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world cup titles 2, world championship medals 2, olympic games contested 7, european medals 4.
Immediately ahead sits Jean-Michel Saive on 85.0, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Jun Mizutani on 84.9. 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.
