ESPN WORLD FAME 100 2019 DESCRIPTION
How do you know you're famous? When everyone is talking about you, or in this day and age, looking you up on Google. For our fourth annual World Fame 100, we bring you each athlete's most searched moment worldwide, as measured by Google Trends. To identify the 100 most famous athletes in the world, we started with 800 of the biggest names in sports, drawn from 78 countries. We then ranked them based on a formula that took into account three fame factors:
1
SEARCH SCORE
Measuring how often a name is searched on Google. We took a weighted average of an athlete's Google Trends peak score (how much he spiked on his most searched day) and his average score (how much he was searched throughout 2018, on average.)
2
ENDORSEMENT DOLLARS
Our sources ranged from Forbes to ESPN contributors.
3
SOCIAL MEDIA FOLLOWERS
Since not all athletes are on every platform, we used only the number from their most popular account.
