How do you score points in tennis and what are the different ways to earn points during a match?
Updated: 3/15/2025
In tennis, points are scored by winning rallies. A player can earn points by hitting the ball in a way that their opponent cannot return it within the boundaries of the court. Points can be won by hitting a winner, forcing an error from the opponent, or by the opponent hitting the ball out of bounds. The first player to reach four points wins a game, and the first player to win six games wins a set.
