Teams Ranked
Colin Merk / Ryan Merk / Dave Wieczorek
★The #1 reseed went undefeated in bracket play at the 2026 Bell Pepper Open and beat the two-time champions in the final. They enter the rankings at No. 1.
Nate Meyer / Charlie Podgorny
▼Still the winningest names in the series: two titles and a finals appearance at every event. The 2026 runner-up finish keeps them at No. 2.
David Hill / Quinn Bozarth / Braxton Francis
▲The breakout of 2026. The #12 reseed eliminated the #5 and #4 seeds back-to-back to reach the semifinals and move to No. 3.
Urvil Patel / Evan Hughes / Jake Reishus
▲The #6 reseed upset No. 3 Maruyama and finished tied for third in 2026. That result moves them into the top four.
Nick Maruyama / Lincoln Geist
—A podium in two of three events and 150 series points keep them in the top five after a 2026 quarterfinal finish.
Mitchell Carrera / Connor Jaral / Connor Studer
▲The field's most underrated team. Seeded 14th, finished tied-5th, and posted one of the best pool differentials in the bracket. Underestimated and moving up.
Ian Schuller
—Won the Grass Launch and returned to the final in 2026 with Meyer and Podgorny. The results keep adding up.
Tyler Donovan / Sammy Atkinson / Abhi Lakkamsani / Justin McCartney
★The deep four-man squad that keeps reaching the bracket. Elite Eight in 2026 with points on the board — the kind of roster depth that wins long days on the grass.
