[Kai]

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.

[Marquetta]

[Tourney] is short for [tournament]. A [tourney] is a [competitive] sporting event.
