    •  Enter the score for the person who lost the set first. The system will automatically add in the ‘winner's’ score.
    • If you make a mistake, you can delete the score or click Clear score.

  • Back Draw Propagation:  'Carry over losing participants [status] to any further matches or draws for this event', will be enabled by default. This updates a player's status in the back draw. You can uncheck this if needed.

  • Scores can be updated by clicking Enter Scores and clear, then reentering them.  
    • To clear match scores, click the three dots on that match and click Clear Score.  

  • Important Note on clearing scores: If you receive an error when editing a score that changes the outcome of a match when subsequent matches in the bracket have already been recorded, you must clear the match scores in reverse chronological order. You essentially need to "backtrack" the player’s progress before the system will let you edit the original match.  See this guide on common errors and FAQ's when making updates to scores in draws:  FAQ and Common Errors with updating scores
