The highest ranked player plays the lowest ranked one. Sometimes some sub-groups are used, but this effectively eliminates the weaker players immediately. If two lower ranked player could play each other, it would be more interesting, at least until the second round!

This is not true.
In a knockout tournament with 128 players, the highest rated player is paired with the 65th player, #2 plays #66, #3 plays #67.... and so on, until #64 is paired with #128.
