In certain situations, players in the same competition may have the same score at the end, this can result in a tie. A tie can occur based on the score of the player, or their percentage to target.
For example, if based on the score of player: Player A and Player B both had a score of 10 out of 10, they would both be 1st place.
OR
If based on percentage to target: Player A had a score of 9/10 while Player B had a score of 18/20, though Player B had a higher target, their attainment relative to their targets is the same, 90%, which results in a tie.
