* gg5: a primary (full 予選 entry is all terms about tournaments)
* genius: trial (full 予選 entry also about tournaments)
* jitsuyō (https://www.weblio.jp/content/予選会): 予選を行うために開催される会。

  Comments:
I think the entry should be recentered around tournaments. The Google Images results are all for races, and the reverso sentences are all about tournaments. gg5 seemingly has "primary" and it still fits, so maybe better at the end.
