Vying for victory
Competitively describes doing something in a way that involves competition or rivalry.
Someone who prices goods competitively sets prices to match or beat competitors.
To play a sport competitively is to participate in organized matches rather than casually: She swam competitively in college.
The word also suggests striving to win or excel: a competitively priced product, thinking competitively.
