The Love For Three Tennis Balls - Once Mud Season Has Ended, Tennis Season Begins. Lets Face It. The Most Compelling Part Of Tennis Is The Scoring. The Counting Of Points Is Simply Brilliant. Early Achievements Are Worth 15 Points. But After Achieving Twice, An Achievement In Tennis Becomes Less Notable. A Third Achievement Is Only Worth 40 Points. Of Course This Makes Complete Sense. The First Time Something Happens Is It Very Notable. The Second Time Is Important As Well As It Proves That This Something Is Repeatable And Not Just A Fluke. By The Time The Third Something Happens It Is Becoming Old Hat, Derivative And Less Original. The Fourth Time The Something Happens It Is Time To Move On Entirely And It Is Not Worth Points At All. Tennis Is More Than A Sport, It Is Social Commentary! If Tennis Scoring Has Been Simplified To 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 And Having To Win By At Least Two Points, Tennis Would Be Boring. It Simply Would Not Be Played. On The Other Hand Any Sport That Begins With Love And Ends With Match Has A Lot Going For It. I Am Starting To Understand Why My Wife Wanted To Teach Me To Play Tennis When We Met. Photo
