Question
Explain about knockout tournament with an example.
✓
Answer
Most of the tournaments are organised on the basis of knock-out. In this type of tournament, a team which is once defeated, automatically gets eliminated from the tournament. Only the winning teams continue in the tournament. It means that the defeated team does not get a second opportunity. Opportunities are given to the winning teams or players. For example, if four teams participate in the knock-out tournament, the winning team is declared in the following way.
In the 1st round, teams A and B as well as teams C and D play their matches. If team B and team D become the winners of the $1^{st}$ round, these teams, i.e., teams B and D get opportunity to play in the $2^{nd}$ round and team A and team C will be eliminated from the tournament. Finally, if team D wins, then it is declared the winner of the tournament.
