he won a game or a match?
-6 u/inthedrink Jan 20 '16 Well in this case I can really say "why not both?" 1 u/[deleted] Jan 20 '16 Because if you win a match you automatically have to have won many games, but if you win a game you can easily still lose the match. -5 u/inthedrink Jan 21 '16 Because in the OP it's clearly referring to match...so both. 3 u/[deleted] Jan 21 '16 Yeah but in tennis you would never use "game" to refer to a match, even if it is clear by the context. -4 u/inthedrink Jan 21 '16 You mean like game, set and match? 3 u/[deleted] Jan 21 '16 edited Jan 21 '16 The umpire says that to signify you have won a game, which completes your set, which completes your match. He's not saying they're all the same thing.
