How tennis scoring works

Tennis counts on three levels: points make games, games make sets, and sets make the match.

Points. Within a game the score runs love (0) → 15 → 30 → 40 → game. Say the server's score first: "30–15" means the server has two points, the receiver one. If both players reach 40 it's deuce. From deuce you must win two points in a row: the first gives you advantage, the second gives you the game — lose the advantage point and it's back to deuce. Many club and social matches use no-ad scoring instead: at deuce, the very next point decides the game, with the receiver choosing which side to receive on.

Games and sets. The serve swaps to the other player after every game. A set goes to the first player to win 6 games with a margin of two — 6–4 and 7–5 are finished sets, 6–5 is not. If a set reaches 6–6, you play a tiebreak: points are counted plainly (1, 2, 3…), first to 7 points, win by 2. The player due to serve starts with one serve, then serve alternates every two points, and players change ends every six points. The tiebreak winner takes the set 7–6 — note the tiebreak points in the last column (e.g. "7–4").

The match. Club matches are usually best of 3 sets (first to 2); Grand Slam men's matches are best of 5. In many leagues and most doubles events, a deciding third set is replaced by a 10-point match tiebreak — same rules as a normal tiebreak but first to 10, win by 2.

Using the sheet: tick one box in the tracker each time a player wins a game — a set is over when someone has 6 ticks with a two-game lead, or wins the tiebreak for a 7th. Then write the final games score into the summary grid on top.
