I need some help understanding the PIGs. I understand why #16s would play each other for the right to get executed by a #1, but I do not understand why there are #11s that have to play in. Why not just set it up so that there are 8 #16s that have to play in to then go against the 4 #1s?



Because they basically did a compromise - not to penalize the worst 8 non-major champions. Instead taking only 4 from that pot nad making the last 4 in at-larges play off to move on.
