Australian breaker Rachael Gunn, the Olympian widely known as B-Girl Raygun who went viral after her performance at the Paris Games, is now ranked the No. 1 breaker in the world.
That’s exactly what it was. The title only gave points for non-Olympic events. And since the vast majority of events with the best breakers were focused on qualifying for the Olympics, all of those points from the best breakers got excluded. Basically, she’s the only breaker in her country who won a non-Olympic event (because all the people better than her were busy trying to qualify for the Olympics,) so it went to her by default.
