I notice they don't know how to put byes in a tournament chart.
I see it all the time and its so easy.
In this case they had 49 players so they need a 64 player chart and they are going to have 15 byes.
64 divided by 15 byes = 4.....every 4th line on the chart is a bye.
Then draw for the byes 1st so everyone has an equal chance for them then start at the top and draw for the rest of the spots on the chart.
Simple.
I've seen stuff like a guy having all the byes in one part of the chart and that person getting 3 byes right into the money, LOL.

It gets worse when you record the finishes.
With 49 players the bottom finishes would look like this if your byes were put in correctly...
33/48th there would be 16 people that finish in this spot
49/64th there would be 1 person that finishes in this spot
But with these byes placed incorrectly it will look like this...
33/48th there will be 14 people that finish in this spot
49/64th there will be 3 people that finish in this spot
