Match is "a formal contest in which two or more persons or teams compete".
Tournament consists of multiple matches between contestants and comes from "contest between groups of knights on horseback. Modern use, in ref. to games of skill, is recorded from 1761."
Competition does not have such a problem with its meaning of "a contest for something" which is from 1610s.
Differences and relationships:

You can also look at related term: championship.
