Deuce
Chat with our AI personalities
The scoring in tennis consists of a sequence of points including 0, 15, 30, 40 and game. When both players are tied, say 15-15, it's called 15 all. However, when it's tied 40-40 it's called deuce rather than 40 all.
"40 all" is a shorter term for saying the score of 40-40, or deuce, in a single game (not the match, just the individual game in a set).
