What's the difference between simple "adversary" and "opponent", if any? Can you give me some sentences to show it? Thanks in advance!

In modern English we use "adversary" for an enemy. This is someone you do not like. An "opponent" is used in contests and this may be a person that you do like but you are set to oppose only for the duration of the contest.
