Kate Answered:

A tennis match is composed of points, games, and sets. A match is won when a player or a doubles team wins the majority of prescribed sets. A set consists of a number of games (typically 6 to 12e), which in turn consist of points, with a tiebreak played if the set is tied at six games per player. Tennis scoring rests on the premise that serving is advantageous over receiving.
