What Are the Rules of Tennis?
Serve Rules
Each point begins with a serve. The server must serve diagonally into the opponent’s service box and gets two attempts to make a valid serve.
Scoring System
Tennis traditionally uses the scoring sequence Love, 15, 30, 40, and Game. A player generally needs to win four points with a two-point advantage to win a game.
Ball in Play
During a rally, the ball must land within the opponent’s court boundaries. A player may allow the ball to bounce once before returning it; failing to return it properly results in losing the point.
Sets and Matches
Games are grouped into sets, and sets are used to determine the winner of a match. The exact number of sets required can vary depending on the competition and format.
