The field consisted of the top 64 players available from the
Official World Golf Ranking on March 17.[3] However, the seedings were based on the World Rankings on March 24.[4]
The first phase of the tournament involves players being split into 16 groups of four players. Each group is decided by a
round-robin format played over Wednesday to Friday, with the sixteen group winners advancing to the knock out phase. The group winner is decided by awarding 1 point for a win, and ½ point for a halved match. If two or more players are tied on points at the conclusion of the group phase, sudden death
stroke play playoff is played between tied players.
The group winners play the round of sixteen on Saturday morning, and the quarterfinal on Saturday afternoon. The semifinals are played on Sunday morning, and the final and third place playoff are played on Sunday afternoon. In total, the winner will play seven rounds of golf.[5]
