How to read the sheet

Matches are numbered in a playing order. Each slot says who plays there: a seed, or the winner or loser of an earlier match. Under each match, the sheet says where its winner and its loser go next. Write the names beside the seeds and the scores in the boxes.

Byes

11 players fill a bracket of 16 places, so 5 places are byes. Byes go to the top seeds: seeds 1 to 5 start in round 2. A bye is not a match and not a loss.

How many matches

Every match puts one player out, and every player except the champion goes out, so 11 players need 11 − 1 = 10 matches.
