You can lose a point in tennis for various things. Here are a few ways:

  • You hit the ball into the net
  • You hit the ball out
  • You fail to return the ball over the net
  • You fail to get your serve in on your first or second serve
  • Your opponent hits a winner
  • If you yell at your opponent using nasty phrases or words (resulting in a point penalty deduction)
  • If you yell at any of the line judges or ball boys (resulting in a point penalty deduction)
