How the 5-team bracket is laid out
5 teams leave 3 empty slots in the first round. Seeds 1 to 3 get the byes and start in round 2.
First-round games: 4 v 5, 2 v 3.
The champion plays 2 or 3 games. At 30 minutes a game the whole bracket takes about 2 hours on one court.
Third place
Switch on the third-place game to add one more game between the two semifinal losers, for 5 in all.
If one loss feels too harsh
The 5-team double elimination bracket gives every team a second chance and takes 8 games.
