AUSTIN, Texas -- Tiger Woods will face Patrick Cantlay, Brandt Snedeker and Aaron Wise this week during the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play Championship at Austin Country Club.
A three-time winner of the event, Woods, 43, has never played in the format that has 16 groups of four players, with each group's leading point-earner after three matches advancing to the 16-player knockout stage on the weekend.
Players were divided by their world ranking after the Players Championship, which meant Woods was 13th. A random drawing then selected players from groups ranked 17th to 32nd, 33rd to 48th and 49th to 64th.
