    Tennis is in my top 5 as well. Not much beats a great tennis match. The 08 Wimbledon final is one of the greatest sporting events I've ever watched.

    That was Federer-Roddick, yes?

    Really, Mo? That was the Federer-Nadal match where Nadal got his first Wimbledon.

    I don't know much. I don't even know the scoring system.

    Oh, well then that wasn’t the best Wimbledon final of the last 20 years, because it is objectively Federer over Roddick (in 2009, I’m seeing now). There is no debate in that one.

    To win a game:
    Love (0), 15, 30, 40, Game point (must win by two), Deuce is when they’re tied at 40 and to win the game a player must win two points in a row.

    To win a set:
    Win six games, must win by two. Use of tiebreakers varies. You can win 7-5 without a tiebreaker, but 6-6 triggers a tiebreaker except in a few tournaments in the final set (Wimbledon is one). That’s starting to get a little complicated. First to six, win by two.

    Win a match:
    Best 3 of 5, or 2 of 3 sets.

    Literally every tennis expert would disagree with you.

    Maybe i'm exaggerating for effect by having it #2, but it's hard to beat a really good and intense tennis match. So much tension and precision and mental strength needed for every point. It's awesome.
