How are very big playoffs handled?  I'm not thinking of first-place playoffs, but something like a qualifying round for a 64-player match play field and you've got something like a 15-way tie for 59th place. 

Surely they can't have all 15 tee off in one group?  If nothing else there's no way they could avoid standing in each other's line on the green.  Do they tee off in smaller groups and the first finishers have to wait on the second tee to see who survives behind them?

Big playoffs occasionally appear at the club pro event that serves as a club pro qualifier for the PGA.

 

But then again, what the hell do I know?
