LIV Golf Match Play Championship: Bracket, format, team seedings, everything you need to know in Miami

The LIV Golf Match Play Championship will take place at the Trump Doral Golf Club in Miami, Florida this weekend as twelve teams of four compete to take home at $16 million prize. The total purse is worth $50 million, and the tournament will run from Friday to Sunday. We take a look at how the three-day event breaks down.

Friday & Saturday Format

The twelve teams have been competing for points as well as a share of the team purse in the first seven events of LIV's inaugural season. The final point count, determined by where each team finished in each of the regular season tournaments, dictates the seeding for Miami.

The top four seeds will get a bye on Friday, while seeds Nov. 5-8 will be allowed to select their opponent from seeds Nos. 9-12 in descending order. On Saturday, the top four seeds will select their opponents from the remaining teams.

The match play is head-to-head and single elimination. Each matchup between the teams of four will involve two one-on-one matches and one foursomes (alternating shots) match. Each match is worth one point, and the first team to reach two points moves on to the next day.

Who the teams seeded 5-8 will select is expected to be announced on Wednesday at 9:00 a.m. ET.
