Tourney
Tourney, and Old English term referring to any sort of tournament or contest. It is still used today amongst certain people.tourney
A lazy / snobbish / poncy / unresearched way of writing the word tournament.
Tourney comes from 18th century Victorian romanticised idea of knights in shining armour. Prior to this it was rarely used in English, being a French word from the 14th century that itself was based on Latin and English. Instead of tourney, the English prior to Victorian airy fairy knights who lacked blood, guts, and gore, quite sensibly used the word "tournament".
