Question:

In Tennis, what is the score when the receiver wins the next point after deuce?

Options:

Advantage out

30-40

Advantage in

40-30

Correct Answer:

Advantage out

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) - Advantage out

In tennis, when the score is tied at deuce (40-40), the next point becomes crucial in determining which player will win the game. If the receiver wins the next point after deuce, the score is referred to as "Advantage out" for the receiver. This means that the receiver has the advantage in the game and is one point away from winning the game.

Similarly, if the server wins the next point after deuce, the score becomes "Advantage in" for the server, indicating that the server has the advantage in the game and is one point away from winning.

When a player has the advantage, they only need to win one more point to win the game. However, if they fail to win the next point, the score returns to deuce, and the players continue playing until one player wins by two consecutive points. If the player with the advantage wins the next point, they win the game. If they lose the next point, the score returns to deuce.
