    [warning: data] The Outliers -- 2018 Open results with normalized rankings

    @jony1996 North East There was a broken page somewhere around page 309, so I might be missing 50 athletes. Also, since people have submitted some 18.5 scores I had to throw those out and remove the overall(CF) total points and rankings. After looking at this data, I'm not convinced that it's...

    [warning: data] The Outliers -- 2018 Open results with normalized rankings
