What they can fix is the grouping conditions such as giving group of fours to lowest seeded players or making the bye positions flexible. the answer to that is a limited number of runners-up qualifying for a last 16. if you have a weird number of players, even better. start on the basis of 12 groups of 4, with groups adjusted to 3 for having less than 48 players. 12 group winners, 12 seeds. from there there are any number of ways to get to 16. in this case : 41 = 5 groups of 4, 7 groups of three. Put top 5 seeds in groups of 4. GRoups of three, winners progress. Groups of 4 winners progress and runners up progress- the two lowesr ranked runners up play for the last, last 16 place (which mathematically can never be 1 and 2 seed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And not a single regulation is updated except making one group to have 5 pairs instead of 4.

sounak 14 Posted yesterday at 08:27 AM #65 Share Posted yesterday at 08:27 AM (edited) Group D is an absolute minefield in Men's Doubles. Just shows what one extra space does to the probability while drawing. Edited yesterday at 08:27 AM by sounak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erw 23 Posted yesterday at 09:36 AM #67 Share Posted yesterday at 09:36 AM Group D in men's doubles have 4 teams that could be top 8. Other 12 teams would be quite happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
