Both Men's and Senior brackets feature starting fields of 32 players, each competing in single-elimination match play over the course of five rounds during the 3-day Championship and culminating with the Championship finals on Sunday.

ABOUT: The format of the 2021 RDGA Match Play and RDGA Senior Match Play Championships features 32-player brackets in each division. Registration for this Championship opens on February 1st for the Top 32 players based on points from the 2020 season.  Those players have until April 15 at midnight to register.  After that, registration becomes open to active RDGA members with a GHIN Handicap Index of 9.9 or less on a first-come, first-served basis, beginning on April 16 at 9:00 am.

Once registration has closed, brackets will be seeded based on the Top 32 from the 2020 Men's and Senior points lists first, then by lowest handicap index for those registered players who finished ranked outside the Top 32.
