For example, a 32 draw international series tournament would have 8 seeds. The seeds are chosen and ranked by the tournament organizers and are selected because they are the players with the highest ranking who also, in the estimation of the organizers, have the best chance of winning the tournament. The draw is then created with seeds placed such that they will not have to play each other in the early rounds and will probably only face lower ranked opponenents until the latter rounds of the tournament where they will probably face each other.
