Answer 1

Love in tennis is part of the scoring. The points in a game go from love (or zero) to 15 to 30 to 40 (possibly duece) then its game. When announcing the game score you don&#039;t use love. It&#039;s just when counting the points in the game. So if starting a tennis game the score would be love to love, no points have been scored.
