It is known that in any tournament with $n$ vertices, there is a dominating set of size no more than $lceil log_2 nrceil$. (See Fact 2.5 here.)
What are tournaments such that any dominating set is of size $Omega(log n)$? No example is given in the link above. A tournament that does not work is one where the vertices are on a cycle and each vertex has an edge to $(n-1)/2$ following vertices clockwise -- in this case taking two opposite vertices already gives a dominating set.

Random tournaments have this property with high probability, due to Erdős [1].
Paley tournaments (Graham&Spencer [2]): if $qequiv3pmod4$ is a prime power, define a tournament whose vertex set is the finite field $mathbb F_q$ by
$$xto yiff y-xtext is a square in mathbb F_q.$$
