How Tennis Game Scoring Works: Love, Deuce and Advantage

A tennis game is won by the first player to reach at least four points and lead by two points. Points are called love, 15, 30 and 40. When both players reach 40, the score is called deuce. The next point gives a player advantage, but they must win another point to take the game. Scores are announced with the server's score first. In formal matches, the chair umpire calls each score and announces the winner at the end of the game.
