There are N players in a tennis tournament. Assuming the initial pairings are done randomly, what are the odds that a certain pair will play each other?
You will only have 1 opportunity to be matched in a single elimination tournament. And as metioned earlier, the total number of matches is N-1. So the odds at any point would be
1/(N-1)
