Reaching the top in sports is typically said to be reserved for the 1% of that sport’s athletes, and when it comes to Crossfit the top is the Crossfit Games.
It turns out however that 1% would be far too inclusive and not a true representation of the best.

To determine what percentage of Crossfit athletes make it to the Games we took the total number of participants in all age ranges that completed at least one workout in the 2019 Crossfit Open and then compared it to the total number of athletes competing at the Games.
THE RESULTS
While only 0.15% of athletes make the Crossfit Games, in 2018 only 0.13% of athletes were able to make it.
This was due to the fact that in 2018 429,157 athletes completed at least one workout during the Open and 560 athletes made it to the Games.
