Rules:
1. All players are put into groups, and they will play 3 others in their group in a round robin format.
2. Two countries will play each other in 3 matches; women's singles, men's singles, and doubles.
3. When a team whens 2 of the 3 matches, they have one the session.
Tennis Jargon:
Ace- This is when the ball is served and the returner never hits it. The server gets a point.
Love- This is when a player has zero points.
Drop Shot- This is a weak shot that drops just over the net.
Tennis Cliches:
Tennis commentators will say things like, "experience made the difference." I think it would be better to say, "they've improved overtime," or, "her experience really helped her win this match."
