Which generation has the best overall athlete representation?

They are clearly ahead in tennis as well. You put a fricking woman in there

Touché

Millennials clearly win given they have the GOATs across every major sport


Djokovic
Ohtani
Mahomes
Lebron
Ronaldo


Pretty indisputable

Jordan and Bonds are technically Boomers, although when paired with Gretzky and either Rice or Montana, that generation has a great argument. Lacking in the other sports though, a bit.

The “generation” analysis in sports is kinda weird anyway though, because it should probably be more about the years of the athletes’s peak/relevancy, not about their literal birth year. But even in that case, Jordan’s Bulls career was over when Tiger had only one major and before Brady was drafted. Likewise, thinking of Montana as the same generation as Bonds is a little weird.

best from each sport is probably gen x.

if you go a couple deep at each sport, i think it's millennials by a wide margin

Folks are starting to connect dots and view the 80’ and 90’ rationally. The public is and will continue to shift towards Lebron.
