singles match
Solo versus solo
A singles match is a competition between two individual players rather than teams or pairs.
The term appears most often in tennis and wrestling, distinguishing one-on-one contests from doubles matches or tag-team formats: She won her singles match in straight sets.
In professional wrestling, a singles match pits two wrestlers against each other without partners or special stipulations.
