  I've told our guys to assume this is knockout week although I would have expected some sort of confirmation by now.

  I understood that it was "Qualifying" to get down to 16 teams - and then Knockout from then onwards?

  The on-line leader board has been set up for Knockout with 32 teams.

  Please advise how this week will be scored - Qualifying or Knock-out?

  Thanks

  Final results have been posted. So everyone should know which teams made the cut. It's not hard to figure out who are matched against.

  Having the brackets filled out will not alter any strategy or approaches to the game since these were made very clear before anyone even signed up.

  Bottom line-if you're in the top 32, you need to have your whole team play.

  It was clearly stated that this was a weekly tourney.

  The 'Bracket' sheet in the results spreadsheet states '32 Teams Bracket' at the top so we are now into a straight knockout.  I think the rules haven't been changed prior to increasing this from 16 teams so can understand the confusion.

  ELCC#2 plays Future Golf Champions if I was a betting man!  Not to rub salt but Lisa's point all along has come true, #2 seed qualified 29th.   #3 seed qualified 32nd.  #6 seed qualified 28th and they get rewarded for money won by the CC and it;s total membership!  I have the brackets  all figured out except if there is confusion, they may wait until next week to officially start.  Who knows at this point?

  OK Russel. Since your team has a ranking of 12, you will go vs # 21.

  Now, I should have said it's easy for me (being on #1 seed) I just looked at the teams who made the cut and found #44, since 45 did not make it.

  So you have to factor in the # of teams ranked lower that didn't make the cut. A quick look, I'd say you could face the host club-  StatoLib

  But I will leave that to Alberto.

  Good Luck!
