How about, to stay with the tournament metaphor, "champion winner"? Also, it
has the advantage of sharing the acronym with Condorcet winner. Perhaps to
be clearer, "guaranteed championship winner" - you could still abbreviate
that to "guaranteed CW" and satisfy both theorists and the general public.

("Guaranteed runoff winner" works too, if you want to sound similar to IRV.)
