The Game • Singles- 2 players • Server • Receiver • Service alternates each game • Serve from the Baseline • 2 Faults • Ball hits the net, Lands out, or foot fault. • Ball hits net and lands in= Let • A legal service starts a rally, in which the players alternate hitting the ball across the net.

  8. Scoring • A tennis match is determined through the best of 3 or 5 sets. • A set consists of games, and games, in turn, consist of points. • A game consists of a sequence of points played with the same player serving. A game is won by the first player to have won at least four points in total and at least two points more than the opponent.

  9. Scoring • The score of a tennis match during play is always read with the serving player's score first. • A game pointoccurs in tennis whenever the player who is in the lead in the game needs only one more point to win the game. The terminology is extended to sets (set point), matches (match point), and even championships (championship point). • For example, if the player who is serving has a score of 40-love, the player has a triple game point (triple set point, etc.)

  10. Scoring • A break pointoccurs if the receiver, not the server, has a chance to win the game with the next point. • Typically, a player wins a set by winning at least six games and at least two games more than the opponent. • The final score in sets is always read with the winning player's score first, even if the winning player loses set(s) during the match (e.g., "6–2, 4–6, 6–0, 7–5").

  11. Scoring a Game • Points used are 15,30, 40, Game. • A tie at 40-40 is called deuce. • 15 =1 point • 30 = 2 points • 40= 3 points • After 40 is game over • If score is at deuce and server scores it is +1 or advantage in(server). If at deuce and receiver scores it is -1 or advantage out(Receiver)

  12. Scoring a game • If the score is 40-30 it is 3-2 and game point for server. • If score is 15-40 it is 1-3 and double break point receiver. • Even points are served from the right side and odd points are scored from the left side • Even points= 0-0, 15-15, 30-30, 40-15, 15-40, 30-0, 0-30, deuce • Odd points= 0-15, 0-40, 30-15, 15-30, 40-30, 30-40, 15-0, Ad in, ad out.

  13. Scoring • When serving you alternate games. • Change sides of the courts every odd game • 1-0, 3-0, 5-2, 5-4, 4-3, 3-2, 4-1, etc. • If the ball hits the net and goes over(other than on a serve) it is in play. • The line is considered in bounds. • Serves have to land in the server box in singles and doubles. • Ball has to bounce once before you can return it.
