It is only subjective in certain context. The arts are inherently subjective I think. On the other hand I struggle to find an argument where one can't define Olympic gold medalists as objectively "good" in in their respective pursuits. Or at the very least those medalists who are quantifiably greater than the competition by time or other metrics.

Diving, gymnastics, figure skating etc. are in some respects subjective arts.
