What is a bracket?

Brackets start with 8 bowlers paired into four groups. After the first round, the 4 bowlers with the winning scores move on to the next round. After round two, each bowler with the higher score in their bracket pairing moves on to the final bracket level. The remaining two bowlers bowl against each other in a final round. The bowler with the highest third game receives first place money and the runner-up receives second place money.
