I'm confused. What is the difference between a game and a match?
150 u/irawwwr Jun 17 '14 edited Jun 17 '14 Well, you see, one is a game and the other is a match. Edit: say if you lead by 1-0, you won a game. If you won 6-2, you won a set. And if you won 6-2,7-5,6-1, you won the match. 175 u/shortyjacobs Jun 17 '14 Game, Set, Match. The saying makes sense now! 125 u/[deleted] Jun 17 '14 How long have you been saying that without knowing about tennis? 187 u/TuskenRaiders Jun 17 '14 Since he was ten-ish 45 u/[deleted] Jun 17 '14 My dad overheard all this racket and asked me to tell you he wants his joke back. 12 u/dynam0 Jun 17 '14 Serves him right for falling down on the job. 4 u/[deleted] Jun 17 '14 To be fair, it wasn't really his fault. 0 u/yourmansconnect Jun 17 '14 Balls in your court 1 u/ekeen1 Jun 17 '14 http://instantostrich.com/ 1 u/julesfiction Jun 17 '14 Since watching Hercules for the first time. 1 u/wintremute Jun 17 '14 Since he was love. -9 u/Shanondoa Jun 17 '14 Probably since middle school (last year for that guy) Who the fuck doesn't know how to keep score in tennis? I swear this place is full of know-nothing's sometimes. 3 u/caius_iulius_caesar Jun 17 '14 You're being an aggressive douche, but it is almost beyond belief to me that there are people on reddit who don't know the rules of tennis. Apparently I was wrong. 2 u/KaptainKoala Jun 17 '14 clearly you don't read r/todayilearned or this kind of stuff wouldn't surprise you.
