Same, but only if I could also stop aging while Serena continues to. I think I might have a chance with 30 years of practice playing against a 73 year old Serena, assuming I get lucky and she breaks a hip.
A point is a single rally. Then winning 4 points (gotta win by 2 though) wins you the game. First to 6 games (but also by 2) wins you the set. And then the match is usually best of 3 or 5 sets.
I think you say that because you don’t understand the actual point structure.
So first point is actually 15. But some people like to just say 5 instead. Now if you both have a point, then you would say 15 all or 5 all. After that, the next point is 30. If you’re tied it’s 30 all. Now the next point is, you got it, 40. If you’re tied, you would obviously say, duece. Now if you score a point, after having 3 points, which is called 40, and you would have more than 2 points than your opponent, then you have won the game, which is the name of a set of points and does not mean you won the whole game. But if you would have 1 more point than your opponent after scoring a point after your 3rd point, then instead of getting a game, you get advantage. You need to score 1 more point to win the game, which is just a set of points and not the whole game. If you have advantage, and your opponent scores a point then you lose your advantage, and it’s right back to duece, which is what you say when both players have 40, which is actually 3 points.
It is honestly a difficult game to get into. But of a steel learning curve, and the point system doesn’t help. Very fun game and ive seen there’s a huge community of people that play it, which is great for networking
Give me like 30 solid years to practice and I’m confident that I could narrowly snatch one point away from an elderly Serena Williams.

I mean, she just has to serve out once in a match to win the scenario in this question. I don’t think it’s that unreasonable.
Isn’t a point in tennis what you get by winning 4 volleys in a round?
That’s a game.

Easy right?
You say the first point is 15, but you must remember that both players start on an egg, called love.
Lol FML. I totally forgot about love.
Out of context that would be a truly bleak statement.
I don’t love this.
Honestly, I have no idea how tennis works.
