The 2023 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play was the 24th and final WGC Match Play, played March 22–26 at Austin Country Club in Austin, Texas.
The field consisted of the top 64 available eligible players from the Official World Golf Ranking on March 13. A number of other players were in the top 64 but, having joined LIV Golf, were suspended by the PGA Tour and ineligible to compete.
On March 6, 2023, tournament organizers and the PGA Tour announced that the 2023 event would be the last edition of WGC Match Play.
Sam Burns won the event, beating Cameron Young, 6 and 5, in the final. In the morning semi-finals Burns beat world number 1 Scottie Scheffler while Young beat world number 3 Rory McIlroy, both matches going to extra holes.




Format


The 64 players were placed into four seeded pools, the 16 highest ranked players as of March 20 in Pool A, the next 16 in Pool B, etc. The top seeds (Pool A) are placed into 16 groups in order, with the groups completed by means of a random draw of one player from each of the remaining pools.
Each group is played as a round-robin of match play matches, held on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, with one point awarded for a win and half a point for a tie. The 16 group winners advance to the knockout stage. If two or more players are tied on points at the end of the group stage, there is a sudden death stroke play playoff between the tied players to determine the winner of the group.
In the knockout stage, the round of 16 is played on Saturday morning, with the quarterfinals on Saturday afternoon. The semi-finals are played on Sunday morning, and the final and third place playoff are played on Sunday afternoon. In total, barring withdrawals, those reaching the last four play seven rounds of golf.
