adversary=enemy意思是敌人,opponent意思是对手
查一下柯林斯词典:
opponent:a person who opposes another in a contest, battle, etc
enemy:a person hostile or opposed to a policy, cause, person, or group, esp one who actively tries to do damage
adversary:a person or group that is hostile to someone
可见,adversary=enemy是怀有仇恨的对手,既敌人。而opponent仅仅指代竞争或比赛中的对手而已。
