Before you can take home the grand prize in a best-ball tournament you first need to get to the Big Dance. Many of the highest-paying best-ball tournaments are formatted in such a way that is not cumulative scoring for the entire season. Weeks 1-14 represent Round 1, and Weeks 15, 16 and 17 are all their own separate playoff rounds. Therefore, you can’t just build a roster with the idea of winning the playoff rounds solely at the forefront. You might not make it. Instead, you need to draft teams that have a chance of advancing into the first round of the playoffs. After all, once your team(s) are in the playoffs anything can happen. The more shots you have, the better the odds.
I’ll break down all the 2022 best-ball advance rates from a few different sources with the goal to find actionable advice drafters can use heading into the 2023 best-ball season. Because with best ball, it’s never too early to start drafting.
Be also sure to check out my best ball primers for breakdowns on all four of the major draftable positions and how to approach the early, middle and late rounds of best-ball drafts.
