Here is the Format - the tournament begins with pool play with 16 groups of four golfers playing in round-robin matches starting on Wednesday until Friday. The winners of each of the 16 groups advance to a single-elimination bracket to be played on the weekend. The round of 16 and quarterfinals are played on Saturday, and then on Sunday the semi-finals and the final and consolation matches are played.

The WGC Dell Match Play is a unique tournament and fun to watch as some of the best golfers in the world go head to head against one another.

The groups are created this way: The top 16 golfers are placed into 16 groups (one per group) with the remaining 48 golfers placed into the groups based on their seeding as well. If after 3 days of play 2 players are tied at the top of the group, the winner of their head-to-head match determines the winner of the group.
