Tennis rules

game

Tennis matches are divided into singles and doubles. The player hits the ball with a tennis racket and falls on the opponent's court. The purpose of each player is to try his best to knock the ball over the opponent's court. In this way, one side will not play until one side has hit the ball or missed the ball.

Serve

Before the official game, it is necessary to determine who will serve the game. During the entire game, both players serve in turns. The player should stand in the area between the midline and the hypothetical extension of the edge before the serve. . The ball sent should cross the net and fall in the opposing teeing area. Each game begins with the line from the right end of the line. After gaining or losing one point, it should be changed to serve in the left zone. By analogy. Usually the serve is to throw the ball in any direction in the air, hit the ball with the racket before the ball lands; however, you can also use the serve under the arm.

Mistakes

If the ball lands outside the opponent's teeing area, such as a ball out or touches the net, it is called a mistake and the player will serve again. Balls that fall on the border count as online. If two errors are made on the serve, they are called "double mistakes" and the opponent wins one point. If the player leaves the baseline when he serves the ball, he is also mistaken. If the serve hits the net, but the ball still falls into the opponent's teeing area, it will serve again.

Bureau

The starting score of each game is 0:0 and the first ball score is 15, so if the player wins the game, the score becomes 15:0. If the player wins the game, the score is 0. :15 (The score given in front of the colon is the player's score). The player's second ball is 30, followed by 40 (in history, these numbers represent 1/4 hour, ie: 15, 30, 45, but 45 was later changed to 40). If the opposing player has only 30 or less than 30, then the next ball can win the game because at least 2 points more than the opponent can finish the game in each game.

If both players reach 40, this time is called "deuce." With the next point, the preemptive player will try his best to score 2 points to win this game. At the same time, the hot pursuit opponents also tried to equalize the score and reached the "deuce-deuce", and the player who took the lead won the next game and won the game.

plate

If the opponent is behind at least two games, the player who won the first six games will win the game. However, if this set is 6:5, then both sides will play another round. If the preemptive player wins, the score is 7:5, and the seizure wins this set. However, if another player equalizes the match to 6:6, then the deciding game (the tie-breaker) determines who is the winner.

Matches

In the 3 matches, it is the first to win the 2 set as the winner, that is, 3 sets of 2 wins; in the 5 sets of matches, it is to win the 3 winners first, that is, 5 sets and 3 wins. The deciding game (grab the 7 games): In the deciding game, the player who should be on the serve starts the first goal, the opponent then sends the 2nd and 3rd points, and then both sides make 2 points. If a player with 7 points first scores at least 2 points, he will win the game. Every six points and the deciding game ends the exchange of venues. However, there are exceptions. If the pre-agreement is followed, the game will take a long game. There is no deciding game, only two more wins than the other can win the game. In the Atlanta game, Australia’s Twins brothers had a high score of 18:16 in the semi-finals. Eventually the double brothers won the gold medal.
