In 2008, the BDA Tour Matchplay Plate was introduced as a way to give hope to the perennial cellar dwellars (Nick, Rich, Andrew) after they finally realized that they had no chance of winning the strokeplay event!
Depending on the number of players in any given year, the matchplay event begins on round 5 and the seedings are determined by the Stableford standings after round 4 (throw away rounds are ignored). This gives players who are well back in the strokeplay event the chance to still bring home some silver. The matchplay event is a single elimination event based on Stableford points per hole as defined by the current strokeplay event rules. During the final round the two remaining matchplay contestants are paired in the same group for some die-hard head-to-head action. Wagers are encouraged.
The winner of the Matchplay tournament gets to keep the BDA Matchplay Plate for 1 year.

 Brett describes Wade as a Sandbagger and favourite to win the Wobbly Fat Man trophy. That's a pretty serious claim considering Brett is the Sultan of Sandbagging. I've been trying to dig up some dirt on Wade and although I've spoken to several people who know him, they have all told me what a great guy he is. I'm still a little suspicious of these claims, especially since everyone I've spoken to was a Mid-Oceanite, like Wade. It makes me nauseous to think how the upper classes are always looking out for each other, Urgh, there we go again, I just vomited on my pants. In 2007, a nasty sudden illness tied to the consumption of alcohol brought Wade to his knees. Everyone on tour learned that Wade is a very reserved guy but when he does let loose... LOOK OUT! Maybe he will let loose on his golf game after finishing 8th in his first (hopefully not last) tour.
