How the 15-team bracket is laid out
15 teams leave 1 empty slot in the first round. Seed 1 gets the bye and starts in round 2.
First-round games: 8 v 9, 4 v 13, 5 v 12, 2 v 15, 7 v 10, 3 v 14, 6 v 11.
The champion plays 3 or 4 games. At 30 minutes a game the whole bracket takes about 7 hours on one court.
Third place
Switch on the third-place game to add one more game between the two semifinal losers, for 15 in all.
If one loss feels too harsh
The 15-team double elimination bracket gives every team a second chance and takes 28 games.
