I am looking for a simple way to highlight the winner of a golf "skin", which is awarded to the lowest score on a hole - WITHOUT ties. If there are two players with the lowest score, no "skin" is won. I've found all kinds of help around highlighting using the MIN function, but as far as I can tell, it would highlight two (or more) scores that were tied for the lowest.
I think rank.avg displays a "1" if the score is the lowest without ties and a 1.5 if there are two low scores that are tied and a 2 if there are 3 low scores that are tied, etc. I believe I should be able to isolate the conditional formatting to only highlight a cell if the rank.avg of that cell among all the other cells in the column is equal to exactly 1...but I can't figure out how to do that. Maybe my formatting is off?
You can see a basic example in the table below. Player 1 should win a skin for the score on hole 1 (the only 3) in column B and that player's score has a rank.avg on hole 1. Hole 2 and 3 do not have an outright winner as there is no rank.avg that equals 1.
My first attempt at conditional formatting was this formula:
=B2="RANK.AVG(b$2:b$9,1)=1"
I tried another:
="RANK.AVG(h$20:h$27,1)=1"
I believe I simply don't know how to format the formula for conditional formatting...please help
