The 2015 WGC Cadillac Match Play is underway at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco, California.
The top 64 players in the world are participating in the 5-day event, which includes a round robin style opening over the first 3 days. The winner of each of the 16 groups of 4 players advances to the Round of 16, which is Saturday morning. That will be followed later in the day with the quarterfinals and Sunday will have the semifinals and final.
