Performance ranks are a quick visual measure of the contestant's season vs. historical data from all prior contestants, in three basic (scorable) categories:

1. Performance in individual challenges (MPF), as a measure of "physical game";

2. Ability to vote people out consistently (VFB%, or VFB/TCA), or "strategic game"; and

3. Ability to avoid being voted against (rVAP, or TCA-VAP) - which scales better than a percentage would - for "social/strategic game."

Tyson Apostol - Bio

From his official CBS Survivor: Tocantins bio page (1/27/09):

"Witty, charming and arrogant is how Tyson Apostol describes himself. This former pro-cyclist and swimmer believes that his natural athleticism, combined with his 'life of the party' personality, will get him far in he game. His favorite movie is 'The Jerk' and that’s how some people just might describe him.

He compares his game strategy to that of some of the most entertaining castaways to ever play the game. Much like them, he is willing to do almost anything to win one million dollars, including implementing the use of lies and deceit to feed off the 'emotional weakness' of the other castaways. A Brigham Young University drop-out, he is actually very well traveled and skilled in street smarts, previously spending two years in the Philippines as a Mormon missionary, in addition to six years as a cyclist in Switzerland, Belgium and Austria.

In many ways Tyson can be brash, egotistical and unapologetic but, oddly enough, he has no tolerance for 'know-it-alls' or individuals who lack common courtesy. In addition to, as he describes it, 'looking awesome,' his favorite hobbies are exercising and sunbathing. If he becomes the next sole Survivor, he plans to use all of the money for selfish purposes, starting with 'the most smoking motorcycle around.'

Tyson currently resides in Heber City, Utah and his birthday is June 17."

From his official CBS Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains bio page:

"Personal Claim To Fame: “College drop out, ex-pro cyclist, never had a real job... I guess I'm good at quitting.”

Inspiration in Life: “My parents, without them I could be dead.  I'd at least be homeless and starving.”

Previous Finishes: Tocantins: 8th out, 2nd Jury Member

Favorite Past Moment: “My hilarious confessionals.”

Previous Survivor He Respects Most: “Myself.”

Previous Survivor He Respects Least: “Narrowed down to just one?  That's impossible!”

Why Did He Come Back? : “Free tropical island getaway, an excuse to not brush my teeth and the potential of a fat pay check... as long as we get paid in diamonds and gold instead of US dollars.”"

From his (and Rachel's) pre-game interview with EW's Dalton Ross:

"Hey, Tyson, are you worried about the fact that there are three contestants from Survivor: One World on this season? 'No, they're children,' answers the Tocantins and Heroes vs. Villains veteran. 'They're all children. Monica, she's 45 and tries to dress like a 30-year-old. It's ridiculous. It's not going to be hard to turn all three against each other by whispering sweet little lies, and they'll all be at each other's throats.' However several other contestants commented that they weren't sure Tyson's girlfriend Rachel would be able to tough it out in the elements. 'I think she's going to miss the creature comforts of home,' admits Tyson. 'And if you talk about that too much, you become a target.'"

 

From his (and Rachel's) official CBS bio page (8/21/13):

"Relationship to Significant Castaway: Rachel’s Boyfriend

Previous Season: Survivor: Tocantins – 2nd jury member; Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains – 6th voted out.

Current Residence: Provo, Utah

Occupation: Former Pro Cyclist/Shop Manager

Why Did You Want to Return to Survivor and Play with Your Loved One? I returned to Survivor to play with my loved one so we could make some sweet cash, have a rad experience and an excuse to take all life’s responsibilities off for a couple months."

Excerpts from his official CBS Survivor: Winners at War cast bio page (1/15/20):

"Hobbies: Dadding, pickleball, mountain biking, and watching TV.

Pet peeves: Inefficiency, other know-it-alls, and inconsiderateness.

When did you first watch Survivor?

When I was familiarizing myself with the game right before the first season I played (Season 18). I haven't missed any episodes other than those on seasons I was on after my vote out, because I'm petty.

Who is your inspiration in life?

My daughters. If I could get as excited at anything as they do about a passing airplane or the moon I'd be crushing life.

As Survivor approaches Season 40 and celebrates 20 years on television, what does it mean to be a part of the legacy?

I'm honestly honored and proud to be a part of such a milestone. I would have been secretly a bit hurt had I not been included even though I'd pretend not to care.

How will you play differently than you have in your past seasons?

I think players will be watching for a sarcastic, cutting, almost aggressive personality who steals food. I'll have to make it SEEM like I am none of those or like I have chilled out a bit, because I have... or have I?"
