Goal: to determine the first 10 World pullers in each WAF weight category on the right and left hand.

Basic principles of ranking calculation:

ranking is based on the official scores of World Championships WAF; ranking must reflect stability of pulling (that's why 3 years' period is analyzed); algorithm of ranking is the same for all sportsmen, no sympathy for any particular sportsmen; ranking updates after every official world championship; ranking considers only those pullers who have participated in the official world championship (with possible doping control) during the period of three years.

Criteria of getting points:

current year  result - (1-25, 2-17, 3-9, 4-5, 5-3, 6-2); previous year  result - (1-18, 2-10, 3-6, 4-4); year before the previous result - (1-11, 2-7, 3-5).
