March Madness, a two-week tournament among 64 US college basketball teams, kicked off March 19. Like any good sporting event, betting on the outcome ups the ante -- literally and figuratively. In the States, it's common for fans to fill out brackets, picking the winner of each matchup. But the annual tradition is called March Madness for a reason, as high-ranking teams will often lose early to lesser-known schools. Surf fans can relate: With a number of big-name eliminations at the Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast, the majority of Fantasy Surfing team managers were in a world of hurt after Round 3. Check out the new WSL series Reality Check for the full roundup of who hurt and who helped the most.
