tournament definition and meaning

What is a "tournament"?

A tournament is a competition where multiple teams or individuals compete against each other in a series of matches or rounds to determine the winner. Tournaments are usually organized in a structured format, with participants facing off in either knockout rounds, where the loser is eliminated after each match, or round-robin formats, where everyone plays against each other. Tournaments can be held at local, national, or international levels, and they are commonly seen in sports, games, and other activities where skill or performance is tested.
