bracket challenge

Tournament guessing game

A bracket challenge is a competition where participants predict outcomes in a tournament—typically one using single-elimination brackets.

Most associated with March Madness, where millions fill out brackets guessing which college basketball teams will win each round: I lost my bracket challenge in the first weekend when my Final Four pick got eliminated.

Workplaces and friend groups often run bracket challenges with entry fees and prizes.
