WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play Bracket Brings Madness to the Golf Course

Thought the brackets of March were just for basketball? Think again. Golf’s version of the madness is underway this week with the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play event at Austin Country Club. The field of 64 players is divided into 16 four-player groups with round-robin matches yesterday, today, and Friday to determine the Round of 16. From there, it’s single-elimination matches on Saturday and Sunday to determine the champion. Players went head-to-head yesterday, and they’ll do it again today. Here are some of the group leaders and top performances from Wednesday.
