Corrected Spearman correlation

In a singing competition, two judges award ranks for each of the 1010 contestants. Based on the ranks awarded by the two judges, the Spearman's rank correlation coefficient ρ\rho for the 1010 contestants was computed to be 0.60.6. It was found later that the difference in ranks awarded by the two judges for one of the contestant was incorrectly taken as 22, instead of the correct value 55. If the correct difference is taken into account, then the corrected value of ρ\rho equals __________ (rounded off to two decimal places)
