perpendicular to the net, are the service lines. The area between
the net and the service lines is further divided by a line down the
middle to form two service courts on each side of the net. The
same lines are used for doubles matches except for the sidelines,
which are wider to accommodate the extra players.

The Score
Each game of tennis is played to four points—15, 30, 40 and game.
You score points by hitting shots or serves that your opponent
fails to return within the boundaries of your side of the court.
The server’s score is always announced first. Therefore, a score
of fifteen-love means the server has scored one point in the
game, while their opponent has not scored, and has a score
of zero—known in tennis as love.

Game, Set, and Match

Game—The first player to win four points wins the game.
However, if both players have won three points—referred to as

than their opponent.
