Detailed breakdown of how Zain's M-S-C-O tiebreaks were calculated. Tiebreaks are used to order players who finish with the same score, in the order M, then S, then C, then O. Byes have no opponent, so they are listed but not counted in the opponent-based tiebreaks.

M - Modified Mean [6.5]

The Modified Mean adds up the scores of every opponent Zain Ahmad has played, then discards one of them depending on how Zain Ahmad is doing.

Zain's score (1.0 of 5.0 possible) is less than 50% of the possible points, so the highest opponent score is discarded.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score	Counted?
1	Carlos Carranza	2.0	Counted
2	Anish Sehgal	3.0	Discarded
3	Ella Shaw	2.0	Counted
4	Bye	—	Not counted
5	Kimberly Leal	2.5	Counted
Modified Mean		6.5

S - Solkoff [9.5]

The Solkoff is the combined score of every opponent Zain Ahmad has played, with nothing discarded. A higher Solkoff means Zain Ahmad faced tougher opposition.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Carlos Carranza	2.0
2	Anish Sehgal	3.0
3	Ella Shaw	2.0
4	Bye — not counted	—
5	Kimberly Leal	2.5
Solkoff		9.5

C - Cumulative [2.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Zain's running score after each round. Early wins count more, because they carry forward into every later round's total.
