To put the tennis scoring system as simply as possible, one must win: \n\na. four points to win a game (15,30,40,game).\n\nb. atleast six games to win a set (with a difference of two or more between the game scores) Example below.\n\nc. two sets (or, more rarely, three) sets to win a match \n\nDeuce:- A deuce is any tie in the score starting with 40-40. This means that if the score is love-love, 15-15, or 30-30, it is not a deuce. But any ties after that are considered deuces.\n\nA player must win by two points. So, until a player scores two points in a row after a tie, the game continues. Each point after the deuce is called an advantage point. So, for instance, say the score is deuce, and the server scores. The score is now "advantage-in". (It would be advantage-out if the receiver scored). An advantage means that person only needs one more shot to win the game.\n\nWinning a set:-\n\nExample No.1:-\n\nPlayer A has won 5 games. Player B has also won 5 games.\nPlayer A or B have to win 2 more games inorder to win the set. Lets say player A wins two more games and his/her total is now 7 games. So he/she wins the set, with the score 7-5.\n\nExample No.2:- Player A has 6 games and player B also has 6 games and lets say its not the final set of the championship. Then it ends up in a tie break. \n\nA winner's match score appears in the newspaper as: 6-3, 6-7(2), 7-6(5). what do the numbers in parenthesis mean? \n\n\nYou'll notice that those numbers only appear when the set score is 7-6, indictating that the score went to 6-6, and a tie-break game was used to decide the winner of the set. In that game, the first to score seven or more points, and lead by two, takes the game. \n\nThe number in parenthesis is the number of points scored by the loser. In the above example, the first tie break game went to the loser of the match, by a score of 7-2, levelling the match at one set all. The third set tiebreak was won 7-5, ending the match. \n\nBecause the game has to be won by two clear points, the number scored by the loser can be any number. If it's more than five, the points scored by the winner is two points higher. For example, a (7) would mean the score in the tiebreak game was 9-7.

There are singles lines and dbles.  Whichever you're playing determines if it's in or out.  No matter which you're playing though if the ball touches ANY part of the line it's good.  You must be able to see a space between in order to call the ball out.  If you have to question yourself or do not know then the ball is good.  Tennis is based on the honor system and that applies to all who play.

It most likely refers to a player changing his game to play better on a different surface. For example, a clay-courter who wants to win Wimbledon would want to work on improving his volley. A grass-courter looking to win the French open would look to improve his fitness and the consistency of his groundstrokes.

Rule 1. Opponents stand on opposite sides of the court. The player who delivers the ball to start the point is called the server. The player who stands opposite and cross-court from the server is the receiver.\n\nRule 2. The right to serve, receive, choose your side, or give the opponent these choices is decided by a toss of a coin or racquet. If the choice of service or receiver is chosen, the opponent chooses which side to start.\n\nRule 3. The server shall stand behind the baseline on the deuce court within the boundaries of the singles court when playing singles and within the doubles sideline when playing doubles. See court dimensions. All even points are played from the deuce court and odd number points played from the advantage court. The server shall not serve until the receiver is ready. Serves are made from the deuce court to the opponents service box on the deuce court. Advantage court to advantage box. If the server misses his target twice, he loses the point. If the ball hits the net and goes in the correct service box, another serve is granted. If the server steps on the baseline before contact is made, the serve is deemed a fault.\n\nRule 4. The receiver is deemed ready if an attempt is made to return the server's ball. The receiver can stand where he likes but must let the ball bounce in the service box. If the ball does not land in the service box, it is deemed a fault and a second serve is given. If the ball is hit by either opponent before the ball bounces, the server wins the point.\n\nRule 5. The server always calls his score first. If the server wins the first point, he gets a score of 15. Scoring is done like a clock. See example below. Love means zero in tennis. The second point is called 30. The third point is called 45 (now-a-days known as 40) and game is won when the score goes back to love. If the score is 40-40, also known as deuce, one side must win by two points. Advantage-In means if the server wins the next point, he wins the game. Advantage-Out means the receiver has a chance to win the game on the next point.\n\nLOVE 15-30-40\n\nRule 5. After the game, the opponents serve. Games equal 1. The first to win 6 games, by two, wins the set. The first to win 2 sets wins the match. If the score is 6-6, a tie-breaker is played. This is scored by one's. The first team to score 7 points winning by two wins the set. The tiebreaker continues until one side wins by two. Hence, Game-Set-Match.\n\nRule 6. If the ball goes into the net, or outside the boundaries of the court, the player who hit that ball loses the point. If the ball hits the net during the point and goes into the opponents court, the ball is in play. A player loses the point if he touches the net, drops his racquet while hitting the ball, bounces the ball over the net, hits a part of the surroundings such as the roof, or a tree, the ball touches him or his partner, he deliberately tries to distract the opponent.\n\nRule 7. A let is called during the point if a ball rolls on the court or there is a distraction from someone besides the players on the court.\n\nRule 8. A ball that lands on the line is good.\n\nRule 9. If players serve out of turn or serve to the wrong person or court, the point or game will stand and order will be resumed following the point or game.\n\n\nThe server is required to keep his feet in nearly the same position during the serve. The server's feet may be raised off the ground, but walking or running are not permitted, so as to prevent the opponent being misled as to where the serve will originate. Breaching this rule or exceeding the permitted part of the court constitutes a ''foot fault''.\n\nIn a legal service, the ball travels over the net without touching it and into the diagonally opposite service court. If the ball hits the net but lands in the service court, this is a ''let service'', which is void, and the service is attempted again. If the first service is otherwise

First, you get a partner and get on a tennis court. Then, at the start of the game, choose who will serve first.\n\nEX:You serve 1st. Start behind the bottom line of the court on you side. Hit the ball into the opposite square on your opponent's side of the court. Make sure you don't pass the little white line in the center. If you don't in the first try, that is a fault. If the ball hits the top of the net and goes over to the other side, that is a let. Redo. No faults, no points. You get a second try. Try to hit the opposite square on your opponents side of the court. If you miss again, that is a double fault and your opponent gets a point. The score would say 0-15.(server's score is always first)Now, you switch sides(from one square to the other)If you succeed, and he/she can't return it, that is called an ace. You get one point(15-15)Now you go back to where you started.(It alternates each point)Now, you serve, and your opponent hits it back to you. It has to go over the net, and in front the line from where you serve, and not in the two boxes at the sides of the court.(Only in play for doubles)It is 40-30 now. You score. You win the game. NOT THE WHOLE GAME! The whole game is called a match. A match is seperated into sets, then games. You win the first set,(out of your choise, 3 or 5 sets.) 6-4.(6 games to win a set and by 2 games. There is a tiebraker, but I don't know that. Sorry.)2nd set:You win 7-5. You win the Match.(If played out of 3 sets.) I don't know if I'm missing anything, but that's my basic way of playing tennis the best way I could explain it.

The exact number of points required for a match varies in the US, but 10 to 12 points is considered standard.
