There were originally seven tie-breakers in cases of a tie in overall points:
Highest placement at an event. If a skater placed 1st and 3rd, the tiebreaker is the 1st place, and that beats a skater who placed 2nd in both events.
Highest combined total scores in both events. If a skater earned 200 points at one event and 250 at a second, that skater would win in the second tie-break over a skater who earned 200 points at one event and 150 at another.
Participated in two events.
Highest combined scores in the free skating/free dance portion of both events.
Highest individual score in the free skating/free dance portion from one event.
Highest combined scores in the short program/short dance of both events.
Highest number of total participants at the events. If a tie remained, it was considered unbreakable, and the tied skaters all advanced to the Grand Prix Final.
