c. After the total of points for each competitor has been found and checked as being correct, each judge shall place the competitors in the order in which they finish on his diving card. He shall give 1, to the diver scoring the greatest number of points; 2, to the diver scoring the second greatest number of points, etc. If two competitors score the same number of points their place numbers shall be added and each given one-half. For instance, if two competitors receive the same number of points, which is the second largest on the diving card of a judge, their place numbers 2 and 3 shall be added, and each competitor shall receive 2½, and the next following competitor shall receive the number 4. The place numbers given to the respective competitors by each of the judges shall be added together and the competitor showing the lowest total of place numbers shall be declared the winner. In case of a tie the point totals of all the judges shall be added together and the competitor whose total of points is greatest shall be the winner of the tie.
