[EM] Condorcet question

I was just wondering something about condorcet circular ties.

Is it always the case that when there is a tie, each member of the tie
defeats everyone else except one?

Thus, if a candidate is defeated by 2 other candidates, he can be
immediately discarded as a possible winner.  If it is true, is there a
proof somewhere ... or am I just missing something obvious?
