Forget early rounds - this is where heroes are made, says Gabriele Marcotti from the Sports Illustrated magazine.

Marcotti goes to the extent to say that it's entirely possible to wake up halfway through the tournament and win it all.
He adds: “Whoever wins will be anointed a genius. The winning players will become household names, their fame will far surpass their ability or contribution. And the losers will be chastised as incompetents, as cowards as men of little worth.”
