I can't speak for your example since we're an hour ahead here, but the 1st 4 scores (2 and 2) rate the divers individually. The remaining scores rate the pair's synchronization.

I found this on the grading system...

Quote:
There are nine judges in the synchronized diving events. Two judges rate one individual diver, two other judges rate the second individual and five judges rate the synchronization of the pair. The high and low individual scores and the high and low synchronization scores are thrown out. The five remaining scores are totaled and multiplied by 0.6 and then multiplied by the DD.
