Hi,

 

We are having knockout tournament. In first round we had even number of players. So pairing wansnt an issue. Now in 2nd round we have 11 players. 10 of the members have been paired. One player has been left alone.

My question is will he advance to 3rd round without having to play anyone?

Yes.  It's fairer than the alternative of eliminating him without having lost.
