ABOUT THE Wisconsin Match Play

When the Wisconsin State Amateur was changed to stroke play in 1971, there was a need for the addition of a State Match Play Championship. The WSGA returned this event to the tournament schedule in 1975. The format has evolved into a PGA Tour "pod"-style, with group play followed by single elimination match play. The top seed for each of the 16 four-player groups will be filled by the top 16 players in the field by the order of their position in the previous year's WSGA Amateur Player of the Year Rankings. Subsequently, the remaining three players in each group will be determined by a blind draw of those who advanced through pre- qualifying. Each four-player group will compete in round-robin matches amongst one another on Monday and Tuesday. Each player will be guaranteed three matches in Round Robin play. The player with the best record in each group advances to the Round of 16 (Knockout Rounds) for single-elimination match play. To be eligible, players must have a WSGA Handicap Index of 9.4 or less.
