Posting my first solution to a weekly challenge!

I used the multi-row formula tool to accomplish this after sorting count desc. By checking 'Leave Unsorted' on the multi-row formula tool, the ranking was done on the descending order I had done previously rather than the default.Spoiler.JPG

Similar to the posted solution except I utilized the unique tool instead of summary.

 

I also went ahead and created an alternate ranking where a proceeding tie doesn't bump you up.  (If there were two people tied for first then the third person is ranked 3 instead of 2). I did this by utilizing a record ID to bump it up against and take the max.

Based on the instructions I thought the result should actually be different in this challenge.  In a round of golf if there are 2 players tied for 1st the player with the next best score is then in 3rd.  I solved the ranking that way initially, but now have adjusted the multi-row formula to get the same result as the example.

A few minutes longer than I would have liked it to take.
