How do you make a draw sheet for tennis with 10 players?

Answer:
You need two play-in games, where number 8-9 and 7-10 play. (Another way of looking at it is that the first 6 seeds get byes.) The winners of the two play-in games play against the 1 and 2 seeds. From top to bottom on a chart that would have 8 players: 1 vs winner 8 or 9, 4-5, 3-6, winner 7 or 10 vs. 2.
