WGC Dell Match Play Bracket 2018

To increase the chances of the marquee players making it to the weekend, the 64 player Dell Technologies Match Play Championship begins with a group play (round robin) bracket format.

Players are organized into 16 four-player groups for the first three matches of the tournament. The 18-hole matches will be played to either a conclusion, or a halve, with matches not extending beyond 18 holes until Friday. Points are awarded to players based on results of each match as follows:
• Winner 1 point
• Loser 0 point
• Halved each player ½ point

The player in each group or four with the highest point total at the end of group play advances to the 16-player, single-elimination matches. If three or more players in a group are equal with the highest point totals, a stroke play hole-by-hole playoff on holes 1 through 18 will determine who advances. If only two players in the group are tied, match play will be the format used to determine the playoff winner.

Tournament Schedule:
• Wednesday, Round 1 – 32 matches (64 players)
• Thursday, Round 2 – 32 matches (64 players)
• Friday, Round 3 – 32 matches (64 players)
