The 2022 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play group stage completed on Friday, with three days of round-robin, group-based match play wrapping up at Austin Country Club in Austin, Texas.
The 64-player field was divided into 16 four-player groups ahead of the tournament, with the four players in each group playing each other once each to determine a group champion and who would move on to the knockout stage of the tournament over the weekend.
Of the 16 groups, 12 were decided by the round-robin matches themselves. However, in four of the groups, a tie for the most points in the group necessitated a sudden-death playoff to determine a group winner. In Group 3, Will Zalatoris beat Viktor Hovland. In Group 5, Scottie Scheffler beat Matt Fitzpatrick in a marathon. In Group 7, Lucas Herbert lost to Takumi Kanaya after he missed a three-footer for par on the first playoff hole. In Group 14, Kevin Na moved past Maverick McNealy, who was the final man in the field.
Now, as the 2022 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play format dictates, the group winners enter into a single-elimination tournament, with the group winners playing against each other as though their group number was a seeding in a tournament.
